Schorsmolen is a dense, urban neighbourhood right in Breda's centre, the address density is very high, and most homes are flats. It's a young area: many residents are between 25 and 45, and most households are single-person. The three reviews on paint a mixed picture. One resident calls it a "junkenhol" and says: "Lots of drug addicts and homeless people hanging around here. The front door looks like a rubbish dump, nobody cleans it up, the council does nothing about it." Another says: "My neighbourhood is safe and close to all shops, sometimes I get bothered by bicycles during a festival or special events, but overall it's fine to live here." A third has lived here six years and "never had any unpleasant experiences." So it's a lively, central spot, but not without its downsides. Read more about the neighbourhood Schorsmolen.
