Auto-translated to English by AIIn my experience, I've lived in the neighbourhood for a long time, but it doesn't take long to get to know people. This is partly due to the Fahrenheitstraat, where you might run into neighbours and other people from the area, so you get to know them quickly. Being alone is also possible, of course; you can enjoy nature in the park near the Albert Heijn or take a walk on the Ieplaan. You can also easily walk your dog here, as there are many trees in the neighbourhood (which matches the name ;)). The neighbourhood is always taken care of, including after festivals on the Fahrenheitstraat that generate a lot of mess. However, a downside is that there is often uncollected dog poop on the pavement, but this eventually gets cleaned up (partly by other residents). The Bomenbuurt is very centrally located, so you can easily get to Scheveningen, the city centre, and several schools to choose from. The amenities are therefore virtually endless. I hope to see you soon if you also come to live in the neighbourhood; good luck!
