Nice neighbourhood where people look out for each other, help each other and tolerate each other. Sometimes there is a bit of nuisance from youth, but it never lasts long and never gets out of hand because the neighbourhood keeps an eye on things so the police don't have to get involved. Only a shame that the houses are old and in need of replacement. That's the only downside.
Auto-translated to English by AIAll amenities in the neighbourhood for now, but if the council gets its way it will get worse. Many shops have already left the Tamboerpassage because the council preferred them to move to the Hoofdstraat, despite the fact that many residents who are often not very mobile now have to walk a long way from many shops. As for the eye-catcher; it is meant for empty cans and drink cartons but is filled at least several times a week by antisocial neighbours who dump large rubbish bags full of junk in it, making the opening unusable and the rubbish ending up on the grass.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere used to be many more things to do, such as playgrounds and schoolyards, but over time everything has been removed to make way for houses. The neighbourhood has many different cultures and everyone gets along with each other. This neighbourhood is also very close to a swimming pool and shops, such as a supermarket, physiotherapy, childcare, and even several schools.
Auto-translated to English by AIParts of the neighbourhood have become run-down, the shopping centre is old and ugly, lots of loitering youths. A number of flats are really ready to be demolished. Clearly a poorer neighbourhood of Hoogeveen compared to other areas where I have lived before. The centre and station are nicely close by, bus services are also good and there is quite a lot of greenery in the area.

How residents experience their municipality
I've lived in Noordscheschut for almost my entire life and it's a very cosy village. Everyone always gives each other a wave and people chat among themselves. Top place to live!
Auto-translated to English by AII live close to the park, where you can take nice walks, sit on benches, which I advocated for at the time. The beautiful art bench also looks great again. The festival has just been held again. You can also play a game with discs there, together or alone. In winter with snow, children can slide down the hill with a sled or tyre. The petting zoo is nearby. People with dogs talk to each other and dogs play together. The old Hoogeveense Vaart lies in front of my house, with an old street lined with oak trees along it. An old bridge also spans the water. People often sit there fishing. A wonderfully quiet spot in Hoogeveen. The bus 'De Bij' runs regularly in the area. Most daily necessities you can buy in the shopping centre. Doctor's practice and pharmacy within walking distance, what more could you want. Maybe a few extra benches, one at the parking spot near the doctor's practice please..
Auto-translated to English by AIDue to the distances between the large town of Hoogeveen and the villages of Alteveer and Kerkenveld, accessibility and amenities are quite limited. The only way to reach a built-up area is by bike or car. And for amenities and education, you have to go to those areas. But the people are friendly and the neighbourhood is safe.

Auto-translated to English by AIAlways nice to live here. Neighbours are generally friendly, you can walk the dog nicely. Lots of nice spots in the neighbourhood. Little litter on the streets. Sometimes a lot of dog poop. Lots of space. Green village. Also a beautiful village. I have no personal experience with the schools, but other people are satisfied with them. There is a public primary school and a Christian one. There are fun activities in summer, especially the festival week. The village is close to the motorway.
Auto-translated to English by AII think our neighbourhood is really nice, it's conveniently close to school and other places
Auto-translated to English by AIA very cosy neighbourhood with many amenities nearby, you have 2 supermarkets, a hairdresser, tattoo shop, several clothing stores, pharmacy, doctor and dentist and much more, so you basically have everything in the area. Also, many things are organised, for example in the playground for children.
