How residents experience their district
It's very quiet here, sometimes some nuisance from youngsters but generally fine. There are plenty of facilities such as snack bars, swimming pools, gyms and there's a nice shopping centre.
Auto-translated to English by AIEvery day people are threatened with nasty things but otherwise, good shops etc. The safety is fine but as soon as you enter Middenhoven you have to watch out for people.
Auto-translated to English by AIA lot of nuisance from the caravan camp and the house is too remote to be able to walk safely in the dark. Public transport doesn't come there and there are often strange characters on the road to the woods. Creepy neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIMany children causing trouble. It's sometimes fun but they often threaten you, etc.

Auto-translated to English by AISometimes everything is a bit far but the most important shops are nearby
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood has a supermarket, bakery, cheese shop, hairdresser, a gym and more nearby. The residents greet each other and are very friendly. I live next to a fairly busy street, so the green spaces could be better, but with a little effort, the Amsterdamse Bos is even within walking distance.
