De vijfhoek is a very pleasant neighbourhood to live in. Everyone knows each other and is kind to one another. Very occasionally some youngsters come down the street, but that's part of it. All the shops and restaurants are just around the corner, so you're there in no time. There isn't much nature unfortunately, but if you hop on your bike you'll soon reach a forest.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a very nice place to live. Everything is conveniently close by and I live right by the water, where I usually go paddleboarding in the summer. The parks are also very nice, I'm there quite often.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe needs of a cat or dog are done at my doorstep (which I can't do anything about) and it is never cleaned up.
