Auto-translated to English by AIHoofdstraat is regularly a racetrack. There are no neighbourhood shops (supermarket for daily groceries). People mostly live alongside each other.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, it's just a shame there are no shops anymore. But there are apartments, townhouses, flats, terraced houses, really a bit of everything, very mixed, but perfectly liveable, although the Hoofdstraat is becoming very busy, it was much quieter 10 years ago. But it's such a shame there are no shops (only a butcher), so I really miss that, especially for the elderly.
