How residents experience their neighbourhood
We have a very nice street, neighbours look out for each other and help each other when needed. I should add that we are all the first residents, so we know each other. It's just a shame that there is no greenery and there are still houses in the area that are in dire need of a major overhaul. As for greenery, it's poverty stricken in the neighbourhood, and there is little for children. There are a few trees on the street, that's it.

How residents experience their district
It's all fine but nothing special. There is some nuisance from youths, and often litter on the street.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in a noisy house myself and have a lot of noise from the neighbours. Which is why I'm looking for another house. But apart from that, it's a nice neighbourhood here. With many nationalities living together in one neighbourhood. There are many activities for all ages. And there are many educational locations in my neighbourhood. But in my flat, there are also people who unfortunately just throw rubbish down from their window. As a result, there are food scraps behind the houses near the storage units and on the roof of the storage units.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is a nice, cosy and multicultural neighbourhood where many different people live together. There are many children, which creates a lively and cheerful atmosphere; it's always nice to see them playing outside. There is a cosy little square in the neighbourhood where many people gather with their children, especially in summer, which creates a real sense of community. Everyone knows each other a bit, and that makes living here pleasant. In the evening it can sometimes be a bit busier and livelier because of young people gathering outside, but overall the atmosphere is good and the neighbourhood feels safe and cosy. All in all, it's a nice neighbourhood with lots of life, diversity and togetherness.
Auto-translated to English by AILots of shards of glass lying on the street near a senior flat where many residents depend on a mobility scooter or wheelchair and are housebound if they get a flat tyre from riding over glass. Cars parked double, especially on Franselaan, or even crazier, parked diagonally on the pavement and cycle path to unload at a Polish supermarket. Speaking to the driver doesn't help because they only speak Polish, as it's a van or truck with Polish plates that keep doing this. Loose paving stones, especially on Franselaan; if you ride over them with a mobility scooter, you're terrified. Life-threatening situation in some places on that street, also for elderly people with limited mobility, because the tiles are simply not laid properly. The flat in the senior complex is excellent, certainly for someone with limited mobility who depends on aids.

How residents experience their municipality
Het is net een klein dorpje, je kunt overal fijn heen fietsen of lopen. Er is ook openbaar vervoer wat het nog makkelijker maakt om ergens heen te gaan. Niet al te ver van het centrum af.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for a few years. There's litter on the ground. But the supermarkets are good in the neighbourhood and there's a community centre. Nice!
Auto-translated to English by AIA very nice neighbourhood. The airport is nearby, but you don't hear a thing. Zestienhovenpark is great for walking or jogging. Many families with children live here. There is a lot of greenery and you see many birds. The best neighbourhood

Auto-translated to English by AIWell, I was born here so I grew up with the neighbourhood as it is now.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is improving more and more each year. Thanks to the rent law, there are fewer slumlords and more and more families. It sometimes still has a bad reputation, but that is undeserved except for a few streets. The location is fantastic, metro, Zuidplein, city centre a quarter of an hour by bike. Zuiderpark is also around the corner and soon the Nelson Mandela park.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe facilities and the apartment itself are nice. But around the building there is a lot of rubbish on the street and junkies.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is and remains a village
