One resident describes it as 'mostly every man for himself, with occasional attempts to build a community', giving it a score of 7.13 out of 10. The neighbourhood Helpman has a good mix of amenities within walking distance, and the crime rate is moderate at 236 incidents per year.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Poiesz is a couple of streets away.

I have almost no contact with neighbours. There are three supermarkets within walking distance. Other amenities are also nearby. To get to the city centre, it's always a 15-minute bike ride, which is a shame.
