Another resident notes: "The neighbourhood is active but not unsafe; there are shops and amenities within walking distance, so you can easily buy a döner and do your shopping at Albert Heijn." A third resident, describing the Noordpolderbuurt, says: "I experience the Noordpolderbuurt as a quiet, pleasant neighbourhood where you can really feel at home."
