I really like the neighbourhood, but it's very difficult to reach. Very unfortunate and tiring since I'm a student and I spend a lot of time on this. Other than that, it's a nice neighbourhood to live in with your family.

Auto-translated to English by AII haven't lived here long. I think it's a nice neighbourhood. But sometimes a bit busy. And it is a pleasant and good neighbourhood. The neighbours are also friendly. There are plenty of schools nearby. It is easily accessible and you are right in the middle of Hillegersberg. So you can easily walk to the shops. I don't know the neighbours very well. I also think our house is good, it is easily accessible but it is almost on the main road and many cars pass by. Sometimes cars drive quite fast down the street. Which is not very safe.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe've been living here for 11 years It took some getting used to living in a 55+ apartment block. Unfortunately, as soon as a flat becomes vacant, it's immediately filled to the brim with 6 people in a 3-room flat. Junkies. And young lads. And this in a 55+ block.
