Auto-translated to English by AIHave lived here for a long time, always felt safe. Everyone is kind to each other. The municipality maintains the flower beds well and it looks tidy. Primary school is in the neighbourhood and 2 secondary schools just outside. No universities nearby, for that you have to go to the other side of the city. Accessibility is very good, good roads and close to a motorway.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood with plenty of living space. There's a small park next to it and it's within walking distance of the swimming pool and a sports hall. There's a primary school and a secondary school (VMBO, HAVO and VWO).
Auto-translated to English by AII notice little to no crime in the neighbourhood where I live. I've been living here for about 7 years now. I think Dokkum Noord is well laid out; the city centre is within walking distance from almost everywhere, and there are supermarkets on all sides of Dokkum Noord, so that's good. There are also plenty of schools, which is nice. The only thing I'm concerned about is the maintenance of nature. In the last few years, a lot of greenery has been removed. My mother took action with 'Burgers voor Bomen' (Citizens for Trees); they talked to the municipality and managed to get a lot of nature back, but there is still a lot missing. Nature is not only good for the earth, but also for sound insulation for houses along roads. Trees and bushes insulate a lot of noise and make life next to a road better.
Auto-translated to English by AIUnfortunately, I've been in a wheelchair for a few years now and I've noticed from the start that there are many uneven tiles or pavements/streets that are not clear or are also crooked and uneven. There is also a lot of weeds throughout the neighbourhood, and little to nothing is done about either maintenance issue! Even after a complaint to the municipality, nothing changes regarding accessibility in my neighbourhood, and I find that reprehensible!

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood consists of the old core residents and newcomers. The old core are a few families who have lived here for generations and their followers. This old core dominates the administration and is chest-thumpingly present. The newcomers are not involved in anything and are mostly ignored if they have a different opinion from the old core.

Auto-translated to English by AIActually always fine. Never had any problems here; if you come here, it's for the peace and quiet. There's not much to do here. I myself hope to see more facilities for children between 15 and 22; for this age group there is absolutely nothing here. Other than that, a nice neighbourhood, just grumpy old people; otherwise a very nice neighbourhood.
