Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood, I live among many immigrants from all over the world (Diemen Zuid) I actually like that. Police are also visible and there are 2 train stations, bus and tram plus metro and schools all within walking distance. There is a fair and we think that's great fun. It has grown very quickly with new homes in Holland Park, Sniep Close to Amsterdam East and between the markets of Zuidoost and Oost Quiet neighbourhood. It still has a village atmosphere where people greet each other and have a chat or sometimes help each other. Children play happily together outside and there are plenty of activities for young and old in the Community centres and Sinterklaas is celebrated exuberantly.
Auto-translated to English by AIWell, it's very quiet here, and the street is very safe. You can also easily reach the shopping centre for your daily necessities. It can sometimes get very boring, as people in the neighbourhood don't have much contact with each other.
