Experiences from Scheveningen Badplaats
How residents experience their neighbourhood
Unfortunately, people leave their rubbish lying around. Tourism is big, but visitors are usually up for a chat. Just behind the tourist coast is 'the village'. Cosy with small shops. Keizerstraat could be better signposted. There is a lot of vacancy; it could be a cosy street if property prices weren't so high. I'm in favour of a cosier Keizerstraat that isn't too touristy but does connect with a tourist area…

Pleasant living in a neighbourhood with lots of children
Auto-translated to English by AIIf you are a Scheveningen, then you are (unfortunately) one of us. But most Hagenaars, and whoever else, friendly, everyone who behaves, what matters is harmony.

Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience with the neighbourhood is that there is very little nuisance (such as crime or the like). In the evenings, there are often young people racing by on fatbikes. That's the less pleasant part, besides the fact that this happens all day long. Furthermore, my neighbourhood is diverse; sometimes children play in the street, people walk their dogs or go to sports or the like. Most people are friendly, but unfortunately rarely say hello (I think that's also the spirit of the times). There are also occasionally confused people. Otherwise, the community is fine and there is very open communication!

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood offers many important amenities when it comes to daily necessities but also entertainment. There is a reasonably good bond between the residents.

Auto-translated to English by AIA nice neighbourhood with everything you need on the same street. Just a shame that all the traffic has to go through the same street.
