Auto-translated to English by AIMost neighbours are friendly. And sometimes have a chat with you. There are two female co-residents who maintain the flower bed... and that is of course very kind. There have been occasional skirmishes, which is of course a bit less pleasant. But overall I feel safe here...

Auto-translated to English by AIDue to the construction work, which has now been going on for a year, our neighbourhood has really gone downhill. Both cleaning, weeds, pollution, street work, parking problems, nothing is being tackled at the moment. As a result, the living pleasure is very poor. Our complaints and reports are not taken seriously by the municipality. The Jeruzalem neighbourhood has become the dumping ground of the shopkeepers. The shopkeepers and Wassenaar Zuid determine everything. Both the layouts, the greenery, the parking spaces, the driving directions, everything is already decided before you can object.

How residents experience their municipality
The neighbourhood is quiet with little contact with the neighbours. It is otherwise relaxed, rich in nature, and of good quality. You are close to The Hague and it's a half-hour drive to Amsterdam. The lack of contact with the neighbourhood has its pros and cons. But it does provide peace. The houses are very closed off from the rest of the street, so there is little contact.
