The one review from a resident paints a stark picture: "The houses are going to the immigrant community and status holders AZC. Neighbourhood is getting dirtier, stinks, neighbourhood no longer has neighbour contacts, everyone just does their own thing." This is a personal view, but it highlights some of the social tensions in the area. The neighbourhood Transwijk-Zuid has a high crime rate with 304 total offences recorded.
For daily shopping, the Coop is just around the corner, with Albert Heijn and PLUS a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: OBS Maaspleinschool is a five-minute walk, and De Wereldwijzer is a couple of streets further. The nearest secondary school is about a ten-minute walk. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and the municipality Utrecht offers extensive amenities, though the train station is a bit further out.
