Brabantpark
Brabantpark is a neighbourhood with a strong sense of community, as reflected in the three resident reviews. One resident says: "Great!! Everyone knows each other. (except the Dutch residents who have recently moved in) If these people also make an effort to get to know the Moluccan residents, it will only get better. After the renovation, quite a few owner-occupied houses with Dutch residents have been added. If both parties make some effort to adapt, we will become a beautiful residential area." Another resident simply calls it "Fine", while a third notes it is "Nice, but increasingly deteriorating neighbourhood." The reviews average 6.88 out of 10, based on three responses. The neighbourhood is home to around 11,000 people, with a mix of ages and household types. This is [the Brabantpark neighbourhood] in a nutshell.
