How residents experience their neighbourhood
Unfortunately, more and more shops are disappearing and being replaced by eateries. Since a gym opened here, it attracts a lot of riffraff; the gym is open 24/7. Lots of fast-riding fatbikes, even in the pedestrian area. The municipality is very green and there is a nice walking park.

Auto-translated to English by AIWell-maintained, tidy and pleasant neighbourhood/neighbours. I feel safe. Everything within reach, public transport, supermarkets, etc. The only downside might be that part of the street has too many cars on the road.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is very safe here. I miss the concept of child-friendliness, I would give that a 6 because there are few playgrounds that are safe. The ones that exist are broken or unsafe due to the youth who break things there.

Auto-translated to English by AIWe have a 30 km/h zone but it's like a motorway sometimes in the evenings. Otherwise a nice neighbourhood to live in, nothing wrong with it, but many single people in a single-family home, which I think doesn't match the housing construction, while there are plenty of people with children looking for a home.
