Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there." Another adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." Based on two reviews, the average score is 4.19 out of 5. The neighbourhood has a high share of single-person households, and many residents are between 25 and 45 years old. It is a place that is still finding its identity, as [the neighbourhood]( /buurt/binckhorst/) continues to develop.

For primary education, De Parachute is a ten-minute walk away, and there are several other schools within a short distance. The area is easily accessible by bike and car, though a busy road runs through it, which can make cycling feel less safe. The train station is 1.7 km away, so public transport is within reach.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature. They are trying to make the neighbourhood nicer, though. It's easily accessible by bike and car, but that's also because there's a very busy road running through it. This makes some places dangerous for cyclists. There's a lot of litter, and it can be unsafe in the evening. Some lights don't work, and sometimes strange people are around. There isn't really a community since there are a lot of businesses in the area. There are also two reception centres that can sometimes cause nuisance in the evening and during the day (boys on fat bikes shouting things). This also makes safety less good, especially in the evening when there aren't many people around.
