It's not a nice neighbourhood to live in, junkies are on every corner and everything gets stolen.
Auto-translated to English by AIHello, I have lived here for 32 years with my wife, my children were born here, it's a pleasant environment for child and parent, everyone is respected and appreciated, all new residents are easily integrated into the neighbourhood in my experience!
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the moment it's a mess due to uninhabitable and boarded-up houses
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have a neighbourhood where you feel safe, where children feel at home and can also play freely, and people are happy that they can live in such a beautiful part of Enschede. The accessibility of the neighbourhood is good, people have a lot of green and colour in their gardens, and there are rubbish bins everywhere that are emptied regularly!

Auto-translated to English by AIPleasant neighbourhood to live in. Many amenities within walking distance and you're quickly out of Enschede. However, there is a lot of litter which attracts rats. The neighbourhood also floods regularly. The shopping centre is a 10-minute walk away and therefore very close. There is also plenty of greenery, which enhances the appearance.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe nice thing about the neighbourhood is that there are many shops nearby. In addition, a number of things have been improved recently, such as more greenery in the area and the demolition of very old houses. But there is often a lot of rubbish on the street, which attracts many rats. I see them regularly. Also, there is quite often a lot of noise in the street, for example scooters constantly racing back and forth along the Rembrandtlaan. Furthermore, I don't always feel safe because there are often people 'hanging around' on the street that I don't feel very comfortable with, for example because they seem tipsy/drunk. Also, the drainage in the area is not very good. When it has rained, large puddles immediately form on the street. The pavement on the Rembrandtlaan is also very poor: many tiles are loose.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a quiet neighbourhood. The motorway is easily accessible and the city centre is a 10-minute drive away. Also good connections with public transport.

How residents experience their municipality
Good, nothing more, safe house
Auto-translated to English by AINice, neat and quiet neighbourhood. Lots of greenery, few high-rise buildings, which I really like. We ourselves live in an apartment where we feel at home. The neighbours in our apartment are all older Enschede residents and Glanerbrug residents. Nice complex to live in. The view from our apartment is beautiful, lots of greenery, and you can easily walk into the countryside. However, the shops, apart from a few, are further away. I personally find that a disadvantage. You really need transport if you want to go somewhere. Not everyone can cycle or has a car. I feel safe here; in the 6 years I've lived here, I personally haven't experienced anything that could give an unsafe feeling. You also don't see groups of young people hanging around here.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a tidy neighbourhood but there are a few people who pick fights and have constant issues with the enforcement, which puts the neighbourhood in a bad light. Other than that, it's not extremely clean because there's a lot of dog poo.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are many problem youths in this neighbourhood. Probably because of people with lower incomes.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice living in this neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIIt used to be nice and cosy. Now all kinds of people move in whom you still don't know after 2 years. Few amenities, nothing to do here. Nature is being destroyed by rich stickers who want to build a house.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's not a nice neighbourhood to live in, junkies are on every corner and everything gets stolen.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood with plenty of amenities, there are many different family compositions and the residents are approachable and pleasant to interact with. However, in my immediate vicinity there is crime such as theft (bicycles/scooters/items) and (car) break-ins. It's a fairly green neighbourhood close to Volkspark, which is of course pleasant, but it could also use some improvement in aesthetics. In my immediate area, street hygiene could certainly be improved, especially the amount of litter on the streets. Overall, the neighbourhood is easily accessible, but to get to places more central in the district you usually have to take a detour.
