Life in Damcentrum
Damcentrum is a compact neighbourhood with around 1,545 residents, and nearly half of households are single-person. Residents of the wider district give their living environment an average score of 7.68, based on five reviews. One resident says: "Cosy and convenient for transport. Cosiness and easy to get everywhere like the motorway, the mall, everywhere. It's a reasonably quiet neighbourhood except on New Year's. View of the Vliet is beautiful and for the rest I'm happy with my spot." Another notes: "So far quite good, I can walk around in the dark and feel safe." A third resident is less positive: "Public transport is no longer available. If you don't have a car, you're dependent on volunteers. Shops within walking distance used to be fine. Nowadays, you have to go elsewhere for the vast majority of your groceries." These are the impressions of a handful of people, so they give a flavour rather than a full picture of the Damcentrum neighbourhood.
