The Schildersbuurt neighbourhood
The Schildersbuurt neighbourhood is a cosy, lively area on the edge of the city, according to the two residents who reviewed it. One says: "I think it's a nice neighbourhood, but I do think there should be more places for the hanging out youth." Another describes it as "incredibly cosy fresh neighbourhood. You notice that many young people live here but there is relatively little nuisance. Although there are nice bars in the area. Also, at New Year's there is a nice tradition of making a fire on the roundabout, very cosy!!"
