The Stadscentrum neighbourhood
Stadscentrum is a dense, urban area with a strong mix of ages, from students to retirees. Most households are single people, and the streets are busy with daily life. One resident sums it up: "It's quite nice to live here, but the aggressive vagrants and smoking youths who rummage through bins are not for me. Otherwise, everything is easily accessible by car, bike, on foot, or with the RandstadRail." That is based on a single review, so it is one voice among many. The neighbourhood is well connected, with the train station a short distance away. For a fuller picture, see the Stadscentrum neighbourhood.
