How residents experience their neighbourhood
Fine, but there could be more playground equipment for the children. Better enforcement for the loitering youth.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy old working-class neighbourhood. Unfortunately, trouble with youngsters (antisocial) at supermarkets. Otherwise cosy, good contact with neighbours.

Ydylische groene authentieke buurt. Gemêleerde mensen dat maakt de buurt bijzonder. Vriendelijk nieuwsgierig maar vooral mooie mensen.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, but there could be more playground equipment for the children. Better enforcement for the loitering youth.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful old trees, green neighbourhood in the district, 1930s houses, good atmosphere, friendly, warm-hearted people from different backgrounds. Harmony and everyone is there for each other. Good accessibility by bus, bike or car. Centrally located near the city centre and central station.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe once beautiful working-class neighbourhood is now in decay, especially the part with only rental houses. Too much "a" social control: if you sell things from your home to different people, you're already labelled a drug dealer. The Noordewierweg, what a mess; at the front near the Opidium you can already tell that the streets along this road are not doing well. Subsidence has already been recorded, also by myself. Shops are disappearing, and if something comes back, it's only "I don't understand, I'm a refugee" vibe. Activities for the youth? The municipality of Amersfoort doesn't know; nothing is done about youngsters who mess things up or destroy things. Covered bus stops have been removed. Drug dealers are present in many places in the Soesterkwartier. Everything could be better.
Auto-translated to English by AIGreen, beautiful trees, centrally located. Nice, safe neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for 10 years and I don't have many problems with the neighbourhood. I don't have much contact with the other residents but I'm still always invited to street parties and stuff.

Auto-translated to English by AIEverything good. Lovely people, beautiful neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy neighbourhood, always quiet
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for three years now and I haven't experienced anything unpleasant or anything. Unfortunately, the neighbourhood is relatively far from shops, but I personally don't find it acceptable to constantly consume, so it's not a problem that shops are far away from my perspective. The neighbourhood is built on a small hill, which is why it's called the Bergkwartier. That's a disadvantage if you only have a bike, because it's quite a tough climb uphill. But 'every disadvantage has its advantage': cycling up the hill is good for your health... The neighbourhood doesn't have a neighbourhood watch. But all houses are well secured against burglary. I've never ended up in a bad situation at night. There is no loitering youth anywhere. I don't often read about burglaries in the neighbourhood, nor other crime. There is no community centre in this part of Amersfoort. There is a small restaurant here, about a hundred metres from my home. But I've never seen my neighbours there. So it's not a neighbourhood fathers' place, although it could have been. The neighbourhood consists of a mix of owner-occupied and (social) rental homes. But the majority are owner-occupied. Their condition is quite good. But people with a smaller budget also live here, and that's good because variety is good for social processes and life itself. The neighbourhood is easily accessible from other places in this city. I often walk in the forest; the forest is five hundred metres from my home, it's beautiful there, I find peace there, so I enjoy going there.
