My husband grew up in this neighbourhood; it used to be pleasant. We've been living here for 17 years now and it has deteriorated badly. The houses have recently been renovated and look very neat, but that's just a facade. It has become impoverished. It's every man for himself. The sense of community is completely gone. I hardly dare to go outside, especially in the evening. Also, a councillor from Delft is ruining the infrastructure.
Auto-translated to English by AIDespite the bumps in the road (one in front of our house), they drive like mad and against the direction. Few social contacts, can count them on one hand. My husband grew up in this neighbourhood, for him back then a 10, now a 3.
Auto-translated to English by AIEven though we live on a hump in the road, they race through the street way too fast here, a neighbourhood party would be welcome.
