How residents experience their neighbourhood
There are many problem youths in this neighbourhood. Probably because of people with lower incomes.
Auto-translated to English by AII live here in Enschede, it's a very international environment. People are very welcoming, friendly and respectful. I am a black woman married to an Arab man and in Amsterdam, Zaandam, Koog aan de Zaan, and Beverwijk when I lived there we experienced a lot of racism and were afraid for our children when they got older. Enschede honestly gives a different picture of the Netherlands, it's very quiet and friendly, and also a plus point it's very affordable to live here.

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in Wesselerbrink Noord-West for years and experience it as a pleasant neighbourhood with lots of greenery and play space. There's a good mix of young and old, and the neighbourhood has become increasingly liveable in recent years. Shops and amenities are nearby, and people greet each other on the street. Sometimes there are minor nuisances, but overall I feel safe and at home here.
Auto-translated to English by AII truly feel blessed to live in such a beautiful neighbourhood. Every morning I wake up to the sound of birds singing and the smell of fresh air. The streets are clean and green, with trees that offer something beautiful in every season. What I perhaps appreciate most is the atmosphere among the people. Everyone greets each other, and there is a sense of peace and connection. Children play safely in the street, neighbours help each other when needed, and there is always a cosy gathering or market in the area. Whether I take a walk in the park around the corner, grab a coffee at that snug café on the corner, or just sit on a bench to enjoy the sun — this neighbourhood truly feels like home.
Auto-translated to English by AILots of contact with neighbours and therefore very cosy
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for almost 32 years now and have never lived in such a pleasant environment before. Nice people, nature within walking distance. And shops also within walking distance. Recreation area 5 minutes by bike. So I am very satisfied.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery quiet and a nice neighbourhood to grow up with small children. A beautiful park to walk your dog.

How residents experience their municipality
Good, nothing more, safe house
Auto-translated to English by AINice, neat and quiet neighbourhood. Lots of greenery, few high-rise buildings, which I really like. We ourselves live in an apartment where we feel at home. The neighbours in our apartment are all older Enschede residents and Glanerbrug residents. Nice complex to live in. The view from our apartment is beautiful, lots of greenery, and you can easily walk into the countryside. However, the shops, apart from a few, are further away. I personally find that a disadvantage. You really need transport if you want to go somewhere. Not everyone can cycle or has a car. I feel safe here; in the 6 years I've lived here, I personally haven't experienced anything that could give an unsafe feeling. You also don't see groups of young people hanging around here.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a tidy neighbourhood but there are a few people who pick fights and have constant issues with the enforcement, which puts the neighbourhood in a bad light. Other than that, it's not extremely clean because there's a lot of dog poo.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are many problem youths in this neighbourhood. Probably because of people with lower incomes.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice living in this neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIIt used to be nice and cosy. Now all kinds of people move in whom you still don't know after 2 years. Few amenities, nothing to do here. Nature is being destroyed by rich stickers who want to build a house.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's not a nice neighbourhood to live in, junkies are on every corner and everything gets stolen.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood with plenty of amenities, there are many different family compositions and the residents are approachable and pleasant to interact with. However, in my immediate vicinity there is crime such as theft (bicycles/scooters/items) and (car) break-ins. It's a fairly green neighbourhood close to Volkspark, which is of course pleasant, but it could also use some improvement in aesthetics. In my immediate area, street hygiene could certainly be improved, especially the amount of litter on the streets. Overall, the neighbourhood is easily accessible, but to get to places more central in the district you usually have to take a detour.
