WG-terrein: busy streets, mixed reviews
The WG-terrein neighbourhood is densely built and very urban, with over 10,600 addresses per km². Two residents have shared their experiences. One calls it "Too busy": "Nice people but dirty place and stench of exhaust gases, very busy and noisy." Another finds it "Fine": "My experience in the neighbourhood as a 21-year-old student is limited because I don't need to be there much; I would like to be more in touch with the neighbourhood, but that might be down to me, I don't know how. School and the facilities are pleasant and I feel at ease when I walk around." The neighbourhood WG-terrein has a young population, with many one-person households and a mix of students and professionals.
