Everyone grew up together, making the neighbourhood feel like one close-knit community

I experience the Noordpolderbuurt as a quiet, pleasant neighbourhood where you can really feel at home. Almost everyone has known each other for years, creating a warm and close community. The neighbourhood feels safe, both during the day and in the evening, and there is a relaxed atmosphere. The homes are generally of good quality and well-maintained. The streets are clean and hygienic, which further enhances living comfort. There is also plenty of greenery in the area; the nature and parks make it a nice place to walk or unwind. In addition, there are sufficient amenities in the neighbourhood, making daily life easy and pleasant. Whether it's shops, schools, or other important facilities: everything is easily accessible. The accessibility of the neighbourhood is excellent, whether by public transport, car, or bike. In short: the Noordpolderbuurt is for me a quiet, safe, and social neighbourhood where people enjoy living and where the atmosphere feels positive and familiar.

It's a neighbourhood with a bad reputation, but it's not that bad actually

It's a decent neighbourhood with plenty of parks and other amenities. However, there are quite a few problems in the area, such as nuisance and dangerous people who harass you. Additionally, it's often dirty because rubbish isn't collected often enough. Despite all this, I'm quite satisfied with living in this neighbourhood.

Cosiest neighbourhood

This neighbourhood is very cosy and you feel at home here. Good communication with neighbours. Lots of shops in the area. Easy to travel by public transport. Close to the city centre, which is of course very nice. There is also a forest nearby where you can explore nature. Fun activities for children, like going to the petting zoo. There are also community centres where you can meet people and do fun activities. In short, this is where you want to live.

Trust

If something ever goes wrong, it's not immediately 'yes police', but we usually talk it out among ourselves. We trust each other that someone won't immediately be reported if, for example, they make noise. Usually we just address the neighbour directly instead of making a big deal out of it.

Life as an expat

I’ve lived in Laak as an international student for over a year now and I had great experiences with the people and amenities available. Everyone speaks English and I have experienced no harassment about not being Dutch.
