I moved here shortly after this neighbourhood was built. Over the years it became more lively. Unfortunately, crime in the area has increased over time.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience of the neighbourhood is quite positive. Because of the many rental houses that have been built, the neighbours and residents change quite quickly, but the neighbourhood always remains quite cosy and friendly.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a shopping centre, large park and swimming pool very close by. Furthermore, there isn't much conversation among the people living in this neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AINice place, there is some crime at the industrial estate occasionally. There have also been break-ins here and in the houses in the neighbourhood. I notice that in other neighbourhoods a lot of renovation and construction is going on, which I think is manageable here. That's also nice. We have friendly neighbours, although we sometimes have cigarette smoke nuisance from the neighbours. And a lot of dog barking. There isn't much litter. There are enough primary schools in the area, and a secondary school, the Leidsche Rijn College.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn the neighbourhood where I live, it is generally always safe. Sometimes there are loitering youths on the school playground, but they don't bother you much. There are also plenty of primary and secondary schools in the area. Unfortunately, there isn't much to do in the neighbourhood itself; there is a small shopping centre and occasionally a fair, but for the youth there isn't much to do.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbours where everyone helps each other when needed, but also has a chat from time to time. Very nice indeed
Auto-translated to English by AIWe never have any nuisance, which is really nice. Sometimes we chat with the neighbours, great fun. I really recommend this neighbourhood to live in.
Auto-translated to English by AIThey moved too many people here from Kanaleneiland. This has really ruined the neighbourhood.

De Nieuwegracht is een rustige en schone kant van het centrum van Utrecht. Aan de overkant ligt een mooi park en een grote weide. Hier is het over het algemeen rustig, soms helaas niet heel schoon. Op de wandelpaden liggen op sommige plekken erg veel sigaretten. De buurt is erg goed bereikbaar op de fiets en te voet. De auto is niet aan te raden, hoewel de Nieuwegracht in vergelijking met de Oudegracht en Twijnstraat veel makkelijker is voor auto's.
Auto-translated to English by AILeuke gemixte buurt waar mensen oog voor elkaar hebben en het rustig wonen is. Het grootste voordeel is dat alle voorzieningen dichtbij zijn zoals Leidsche Rijn centrum, winkelcentrum parkwijk, bushalte, treinstation, scholen, sportclubs, parken, bioscoop en horeca.
Auto-translated to English by AIHeerlijk rustige buurt op slechts 20 minuten afstand van het centrum van Utrecht. Park Hoge Weide, scholen, supermarkten en sportvoorzieningen zijn om de hoek.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighborhood is considered safe, has an active and engaged community, and is well maintained. Neighborhood relations are good. Residents have access to quality housing, reputable schools, and attractive green spaces such as Wilhelminapark, Oosterspoorbaan and Minstroom. The centre is within reach, and Oost offers a nice number of shops.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy, student-like, park on the doorstep, where people sit when the weather is nice. Pub in the neighbourhood, shopping centre within walking distance and Kanaalstraat nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AILunetten zuid is a fairly extensive area, but there are common characteristics: There is little traffic on the streets, even the ring road is relatively quiet. Many houses are situated around a shared green space with some play facilities. This quickly creates a bond with the neighbours. Because Lunetten is separated from the city by a park and forts, which are part of the UNESCO heritage, it has some village-like features. If you value your privacy and don't like contact, then Leidsche rijn is more likely a place where you'll feel at home. Lunetten is not a place of high fences, but rather has a scent of granola with a hint of wokeness. If you feel at home with that, you are very welcome, but if you are not willing to do something for the neighbourhood or your neighbours, there are plenty of other places where you will feel at home.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in Zuilen for 26 years and still consider it one of the best neighbourhoods in Utrecht. With shops, schools, buses and the train station all nearby, everything is within reach. And with the beautiful Julianapark just around the corner, the area also has a lovely place to relax. As far as I'm concerned, an absolute top location.
Auto-translated to English by AIEspecially great that there are so many nice shops in the area. The walks to the Muntkade and Park Oog en Al also often make my day. The house I live in is old and hasn't been properly maintained by the landlord for a long time.
