My neighbourhood is nice. There are kind people around you and you have people from young to old. There are shops nearby that I can quickly get to as a student, and homes that aren't too expensive.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a nasty woman who would interrupt you easily because she is obsessive and wants everything to be in accordance with her interests and favourite.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a while now and it's a nice neighbourhood. It's a cosy part of Nijmegen with a section that has several supermarkets. Only amenities like Lidl or an optician would be nice if they were a bit closer. I also notice, when it comes to housing, that it's incredibly difficult to get another home. I'm a qualified nurse and am starting a master's in September and am looking for an apartment with my best friend; unfortunately, this is very difficult and we've been searching for a long time. Furthermore, it's nice that there are several buses here, you're close to the Waal beach and schools. In short, it's a very nice neighbourhood to live in, and I hope I can continue living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are never any unpleasant situations here and it's a friendly neighbourhood where everyone greets each other. Plenty of parking spaces and cats can also walk around peacefully.
