How residents experience their district
A very nice neighbourhood with lovely people and a cosy atmosphere.
Auto-translated to English by AIBoeimeer is a very nice neighbourhood. Especially for people with young children, it's a neighbourhood to settle down in. It's quiet, people are kind to each other and there's a good atmosphere. The location is also great, 5 minutes from the centre but no trouble with noise pollution or anything like that. In short, I give Boeimeer an 8/10!
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood, you're close to a small park with a public swimming pool, you can do something on the canal, the city is also within walking distance. For someone who moved there later, it's very nice, you can always find things to do for your age and meet other people.

How residents experience their municipality
Very dangerous my neighbourhood. I work as a volunteer for the last 32 years, but the situation is very very dangerous. Police don't listen. There is no gathering of the neighbourhood in the last two years. I always clean my street. Geeren Zuid Park. I have worked with Werk aan de wijk. I made art workshops. Municipality Breda didn't give 400 euros for material costs, only gave 200, so I asked my family for 1000 US dollars so I could buy materials. I'm sorry, but senior people get no respect here in Breda. (I was racially abused by a security guard in ALDI supermarket as I was giving my trolley to an old lady.) It hurts a lot as I worked for United Nations Goodwill Ambassadors for the last 50 long years, UNICEF, UNESCO, SAVE THE CHILDREN, NCIV Mr Pronk, Voices Of The Earth, for enlightenment in the visions of tomorrow. Pass the torch on to others. Hold on to the memories of yesterday. Even a small memory goes a long, long way and fulfils its purpose in eternity. Quote by M. Bugi.

Auto-translated to English by AISafety is good. Hygiene is good, slightly less in some places because there is a McDonald's where some people don't clean up their rubbish. I don't have any trouble with this, and occasionally someone from McDonald's comes to clean it up. So I gave it a passing grade. Housing is also good. Everything is spacious. Accessibility for cars and cyclists is good. There is also a station reasonably close by. There is no school in the neighbourhood, so no education. You have to cycle a bit for that. About the community: it's fine. There is a neighbourhood party every year, but nothing more. I don't feel the need for that either. The neighbourhood is also reasonably green because the houses are spaced out. Many people have greenery in their own gardens. Just as there is no school, there are also no facilities. You have to cycle a bit for that again. Conclusion: I live well here. The neighbourhood is especially suitable for people who want to live spaciously and quietly. For elderly people who have difficulty walking, this neighbourhood is not suitable.
Auto-translated to English by AIGreat!! Everyone knows each other. (except the Dutch residents who have recently moved in) If these people also make an effort to get to know the Moluccan residents, it will only get better. After the renovation, quite a few owner-occupied houses with Dutch residents have been added. If both parties make some effort to adapt, we will become a beautiful residential area.

Auto-translated to English by AII have lived in Kroeten my whole life, and have always lived positively here. It is a nice, tidy neighbourhood with various amenities nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't been living here very long, about six months I think, but I immediately felt at home. The Mastbos is literally around the corner for a lovely walk, as is the Ginniken square for nice restaurants and cafés. The Albert Heijn is a 5-minute bike ride or a 15-minute walk. The station is a 15-20 minute bike ride. There are many large, beautiful houses to admire here, the atmosphere feels very village-like, and it's all very lovely. It also feels safe.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful, we help each other with a joint barbecue and a neighbourhood chat. It's great here. A chat is part of it every now and then.
Auto-translated to English by AII myself quite like living here
