It's a nice neighbourhood close to the centre, which is just a few minutes away by bike. There's also a cross park, some playgrounds, and a basketball court. There's also a small lake where you can swim, and next to it there's an indoor swimming pool.

How residents experience their municipality
Little cohesion and actually not suitable for houses due to noise and fine dust, in short not a healthy place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIDe Veldwachter, nasty apartments on polluted ground. De Zuiderweg, a very busy road without any enforcement whatsoever. According to the municipality, De Zuiderweg has a lane-like appearance, without trees, so.
Auto-translated to English by AIFriendly people
Auto-translated to English by AII live nice and quiet by the cycle path, so no cars at the door.
Auto-translated to English by AII have contact with many neighbours and residents, once a week I go to the neighbourhood room where villagers come. Furthermore, I find the entrance to the neighbourhood unattractive; the café is abandoned, just over the bridge to the right part of a house has been demolished and has been broken open for a few years. The other part of the house is boarded up and supported by large beams, otherwise it would collapse. There is also a nice little square with some benches where many cyclists rest. There is no longer a school in the village, there are no shops. However, there is a football and tennis club.
Auto-translated to English by AII experience this neighbourhood as quiet, stable. There are no extra amenities, but as far as I'm concerned that's fine, it probably makes the neighbourhood as quiet as it is now. The greenery is a bit sparse here and there. The neighbourhood is reasonably clean and the green space maintenance keeps what there is in good condition. From the neighbourhood, everything is within acceptable distance, so as far as I'm concerned, no amenities are needed in the neighbourhood itself.
Auto-translated to English by AILiving next to neighbours who get under your skin is very unpleasant. This concerns noise, music that is too loud, endless barking and spreading gossip. It was once beautifully green with a cool forest. All of this has been destroyed by the municipality. Public transport is a disaster.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy, friendly neighbourhood. Lots of fun things to do and good restaurants. Also a nice gym.
