Haarwijk West
Haarwijk West is a mixed neighbourhood with a strong family presence, where about a third of households have children and a similar share are single-person homes. One resident describes the area as "Filthy.", noting that "Lots of litter every day at the underground bins. I report it regularly. Haarwijk is often a mess because of litter." That is the only review so far, so it gives a one-sided picture, but it does point to a real frustration. The neighbourhood itself is quiet and green, with a mix of ages and a steady, settled feel.
