Since I've been living here, I've come across friendly people.
Auto-translated to English by AIBergpolder has improved significantly in recent years. Many apartments have been renovated, there is an influx of nice new residents, and the location is ideal. You do notice a clear difference in lifestyle between the old and new residents, but that is not disturbing in itself. Gentrification is underway, following the surrounding neighbourhoods, but is somewhat controlled by the large stock of (social) rental homes in the area. The result is that you can literally meet anyone here, from yuppie to student to family to asylum seeker. Everyone lives together harmoniously, but within their own bubble. Houses are old, very old, so they often need some love if they haven't been renovated yet. But the location is perfect, and there are many beautiful inner gardens that compensate for the bare streets. Everything you need is within walking distance. I think the arrival of the Hofbogenpark will give the neighbourhood a further boost. The greenery is still a bit sparse in some places in the area.

Auto-translated to English by AIFairly quiet living, though expensive, the Schieweg is often messy and there should be more benches in the neighbourhood. Here and there some green spots to enjoy nature. Supermarkets are a bit of a walk away, but there's a chip shop and a convenience store on every street corner. The Schieweg also has its own tram stop with frequent trams. Buses are scarce in the area.

Bergpolder has a mix of residents, including families, but only 650 households have children out of 5,410 total. The area is very urban (density 5,956 addresses per km²) and mostly consists of apartments. There are several primary schools within walking distance, but secondary schools are a bit further. Reviews are mixed: some appreciate the diversity, while others find it less family-friendly.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. The high address density (5,956 per km²) indicates a very urban location with good transport links.
The building dates from 1936, so it is a pre-war apartment. Many homes in Bergpolder are from before 1945 (92.4%). The energy label C suggests some modernisation, but reviews mention that older homes can be damp and cold in winter and hot in summer if not renovated. This particular apartment's condition is not detailed in the listing.
Yes, a park or garden is just a couple of streets away (0.3 km). The neighbourhood has some inner gardens, though streets can be bare. The upcoming Hofbogenpark is expected to add more greenery, as mentioned in one resident review.
