The neighbourhood Rivierenbuurt gets a 6.84 out of 10 from six reviews. One resident calls it a "top location" and says: "It's close and just far enough from the centre that you're in a quiet, cosy neighbourhood, but you can easily find the bustling centre within 5 minutes." Another is less positive, mentioning "many drug users, many dogs pooping on the street, a lot of noise." A third notes the lack of green: "The neighbourhood isn't really green. There are many houses close together, despite that it is a relatively accessible neighbourhood." The area is densely populated, with mostly single-person households and a young demographic.
For your morning bread, PLUS is just around the corner, and Aldi is a couple of streets away. There are several schools within walking distance: De Vrije School Groningen Onderbouw is a five-minute walk, and Parcival College is also close by.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's close and just far enough from the centre that you're in a quiet, cosy neighbourhood, but you can easily find the bustling centre within 5 minutes. This will only get better when the new station is finished.
Auto-translated to English by AIStation nearby, pub/terrace nearby, supermarket within walking distance and city centre also 5 minutes by bike. But the street is busy with traffic. Other than that, there are many students/young professionals living here, so there's almost never any trouble with crime (once a man was in our garden stealing empty crates of beer), but there can be some noise nuisance.
Auto-translated to English by AIA very nice neighbourhood to live in! Within walking distance of the city and yet green spaces nearby. Pleasant to live in both as a student and as parents with young children!
Auto-translated to English by AIthis is a very nice neighbourhood to live in. everything is within walking distance and cafe de klikspaan in the middle of the neighbourhood is a nice meeting point. the plus is also a nice shop.
