Life in De Bothoven
Residents of the district give their living environment an average score of 6.95, based on ten reviews.

However, in my immediate vicinity there is crime such as theft (bicycles/scooters/items) and (car) break-ins." Another resident, who has lived there for over two years, says: "The neighbourhood is very friendly and tidy. Many new buildings are being built for students and first-time buyers! Everything is very close by, which is super convenient." A third resident, who runs a shop in the city centre, is more critical: "Over the years, the inner city has changed a lot! And not for the better. Demolition of beautiful buildings, many empty shop premises where unfortunately only the so-called 'fortune seekers' often settle."
