The neighbourhood is improving more and more each year. Thanks to the rent law, there are fewer slumlords and more and more families. It sometimes still has a bad reputation, but that is undeserved except for a few streets. The location is fantastic, metro, Zuidplein, city centre a quarter of an hour by bike. Zuiderpark is also around the corner and soon the Nelson Mandela park.

Auto-translated to English by AIDe Tarwewijk is a nice neighbourhood where people from all backgrounds live together. As a woman, I feel reasonably safe there and I love trying restaurants with food from different countries. The downside is the dirt. There is a lot of litter and bins are often overflowing.
