Life on the street
For daily shopping, you have an AH XL just around the corner, with a Dirk a couple of streets away and a Jumbo within a five-minute walk. Schools are close too: a primary school is on your doorstep, and secondary schools are within a ten-minute walk. The resident notes that the schools in the area are all Christian, so for a public school you'd need to cycle a bit further. The train station is about 2.6 km away.
