The Professorenbuurt
The Professorenbuurt neighbourhood is a busy, mixed area full of families and students. One resident says: "I feel very safe here, in all that time there was only one fire, but otherwise you can live your life quietly here, mostly highly educated neighbours, which is pleasant in contact." Another describes it as "the neighbourhood that has everything", with schools, a gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets. A third notes it is "quite cosy, though sometimes dirty because rubbish isn't put in the bins". Based on three reviews, the overall picture is of a safe, convenient place with a few rough edges. The area is dominated by single-person households, and a large share of residents are in their twenties and thirties.
