Auto-translated to English by AIIn our neighbourhood, everyone knows each other a bit
Auto-translated to English by AIAccessibility by bike is great because it's very close to the city centre, but less so by car due to the crowds and many one-way streets. There are mainly buildings, so there isn't much greenery, but at the Nieuwe Kerkhof there's a nice little park with enough green; also, the neighbourhood borders the Noorderplantsoen, the largest park in the city. Hygiene leaves something to be desired; occasionally I see vomit from students or dog poop on the street. Safety also leaves something to be desired; there are quite a few junkies and homeless people on the street. As a man, I don't feel unsafe, but I can imagine women do. Also, bikes are often stolen, etc. The community is fine, not close-knit or anything, but diverse: many students, but also elderly people and couples. I occasionally have noise nuisance from students. Housing is very good in this neighbourhood: beautiful houses that represent the old centre well, combined with nice new-build apartment complexes. As for education, there's something for everyone within a 10-minute bike ride, from primary schools to the Zernike Campus. Finally, all the amenities I need are within walking or cycling distance.
