It's a nice neighbourhood to live in. I feel safe and most people are friendly. However, we do think the greenery is really in need of renewal, and the pavements and roads also give a somewhat outdated and neglected impression. The neighbourhood could do with a makeover and more colour. The playground in the Dassenkuil has just been newly laid out, but it's really only for a certain age group. The older children have nothing. Too bad!

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here as a child, a bit further down from where I live now, and I know this neighbourhood like the back of my hand. I find it reasonably quiet, because it's a care flat where I've been living for 13 months now. I feel safe, as long as I don't have to go out in the evening. You have everything nearby: supermarkets, drugstores, GP, dentist. Only the pharmacy is a bit further away. I feel at ease and quite safe in the neighbourhood, and I'm glad I got this flat for medical reasons. In the evening it's less safe because of drug dealers who sometimes hang around the car park, but that hasn't disturbed my living pleasure so far. And because I lived a bit further down this street as a child, I feel at home in this neighbourhood, and it brings back fond memories when I walk or ride my mobility scooter through the area.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a year now. Quiet neighbourhood and quick to have a chat with people. Pleasant and welcoming neighbourhood.
