Auto-translated to English by AIIt's getting worse and worse here. I've been living here for 6 years now, but more foreigners are moving in. Two weeks ago, there was a shooting less than 25 metres from the apartment block. Sad.
Auto-translated to English by AISo many foreigners live here and there are so many shootings in this neighbourhood, my child cannot walk around safely, that's why Selwerd looks like a little Turkey.

Auto-translated to English by AINeutral. No cohesion.
Auto-translated to English by AIDifferent kinds of people live in my neighbourhood with diverse backgrounds and from various cultures. Also a good mix in terms of ages. There are plenty of activities and facilities. And the neighbourhood is easily accessible. However, busy traffic is sometimes a downside. There is enough green space in my neighbourhood and the maintenance is reasonably good.
Auto-translated to English by AILiving in Paddepoel feels to me like living in a small town within the city. Everything I need is close by: the shopping centre around the corner, the bus to the city centre at my doorstep, and the Zernike campus within walking distance. The neighbourhood is a mix of quiet and lively; during the day you hear children playing, and in the evenings it's often pleasantly busy around the shops. All sorts of people live here, from students to families and the elderly, which makes the area a bit chaotic but also very human. Sometimes it's a bit messy or you hear traffic, but that's part of the city. Overall, Paddepoel feels like a practical, familiar place where there's always something to do.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe shop is a 2-minute walk away and open until 10 PM, plus there are many other nice shops in the shopping centre. The municipality regularly comes by to clean and tidy up, and I have lovely neighbours.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a nice neighbourhood, it's nice and quiet and everything is easy to reach. Shops are conveniently close and there are plenty of public transport options. Schools in the area are also easy to reach and not too far.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuite a lot happens in the Paddepoel neighbourhood. Fortunately, I am less affected by it myself and I live in a nice location.

Auto-translated to English by AIPeople are friendly, I enjoy living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is always something to do. There are supermarkets and plenty of other shops, cafeterias, fresh bread from the bakery. Market once a week, a nice park with ponds for fishing.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, it's safe to cycle home in the evening but it's not super either. And there is a huge piece of nature
Auto-translated to English by AIActually, everything is just fine. There are several eateries in the neighbourhood, supermarkets are close by, bus stops, you can park your bike easily, and with the city beach there is also a beautiful and well-known green area.
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything in the neighbourhood: shops, sports facilities, schools, community centres. So something for everyone.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a shopping centre opposite here so I always have something to see and never get bored
Auto-translated to English by AIVery beautiful neighbourhood in Groningen. Lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops. What is unpleasant is that there is often rubbish next to the bins. Furthermore, the neighbourhood has many nice small parks and you are within no time in a quiet natural environment where you can enjoy walking, running, cycling etc. All in all, this neighbourhood is perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers.
