I get along well with the people
Auto-translated to English by AIGood atmosphere, nice people
Auto-translated to English by AIWe do have some contact with a few neighbours but otherwise there is no sense of community as far as I know. It is quiet, no bikes stolen, and a very nice location and good rent. By car, it is unclear with navigation for people who are not from Delft.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's not the safest. 2 murders. But otherwise hygienic, nice people and nice places to exercise. Too bad there's only 1 neighbourhood supermarket but otherwise nice shops. Unrest during New Year's. Quite a few foreigners. Many students but quiet.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living in the Zeeheldenbuurt for four years now, and I really like it. When you cycle from the city centre or the station, you go from busy and chaotic to very quiet. I live there as a student, and although we never have any problems with the neighbours, I can imagine that this could be annoying for residents in other neighbourhoods. There aren't many green spaces. There are a few small parks within walking/cycling distance.

Experiences from Delft
How residents experience their municipality
Quiet neighbourhood with everything you need nearby. The only hassle is finding parking spaces. There isn't often nuisance or anything.
Auto-translated to English by AINo sense of community, little contact, also some loitering youths, a lot of litter in the area.. I often clean up rubbish but the next day it's all over the ground again.. experienced a burglary at the neighbours' in broad daylight.. that does create a feeling of insecurity.. In addition, I sometimes have trouble with men following me.. and fireworks are set off all year round, also randomly at 3am.. There are 2 nice playgrounds in the neighbourhood but I often don't find them safe for children because there is too much litter.. think lots of cigarette butts and glass and many other things.. but it's nice that the facility is there
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is often dirty, there is a lot of rubbish in my street next to the container, that is the only bad thing, that's why we get vermin in the street, mice, rats for example

Auto-translated to English by AIno negative experiences
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is a pleasant, accessible environment. There are many amenities nearby and the shops are easily reachable. However, there is often litter on the street and we have occasionally had mice in the neighbourhood as a result. Placing more bins could possibly prevent this. However, there are very few houses available and everything is unaffordable. Housing could therefore be better.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a fine neighbourhood, except that I sometimes feel unsafe when I cycle late in the evening. Other than that, I never really have trouble with people. The neighbourhood could be a bit greener in my opinion, but well, it's mostly flats and they're not that pretty.
