Rats run across you, it stinks outside, and there are many loitering youths, so safety is not great." Another describes it as "Well-connected, green environment" and notes: "There are many families with children and elderly people, which makes it a lot quieter. The shopping centre has all the necessary shops together and is within walking distance." The area has a high address density and a young population, with many single-person households.

Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood has a bit of a reputation as the unsafe neighbourhood of Utrecht, together with Kanaleneiland. But that's not too bad. There are many families with children and elderly people, which makes it a lot quieter. The shopping centre has all the necessary shops together and is within walking distance. Additionally, this neighbourhood is well-connected: you can be in the city centre in 10 minutes by bus, and you can quickly get onto the motorway by car. This neighbourhood also has a lot of greenery, small parks, benches, a football field, playgrounds, etc. So this neighbourhood has many positive aspects. But, of course, there are also some negative aspects, such as cars driving too fast, which sometimes creates very dangerous situations, and the number of loitering youths who are often outside until late in the evening.
