As part of Hillegersberg, this neighbourhood is a safe, clean neighbourhood with a good connection to the centre. It would be nice if the connection with surrounding neighbourhoods by public transport were improved (think of, for example, Kralingen). Additionally, there is occasional speed and noise pollution on, among others, Straatweg and Kleiweg. Also, the Kleiweg should be made safer for children because many people cross outside the zebra crossings. Moreover, this is a 50 km/h road where the zebra crossings themselves are not clear for car and bicycle drivers.

Auto-translated to English by AII generally have a good experience with my neighbourhood; not much happens in my opinion, but there are also no very large shopping areas, shopping streets, etc. I don't mind this at all because a lot is accessible by bike, but unfortunately there is no metro within walking distance for me.
