One calls it a "Cosy, relatively quiet inner-city neighbourhood" and says: "The neighbours are involved and there for each other. There is always something to do, but usually it's also quiet on the street." The other is less positive: "It's getting busier and noisier in the city centre where I live. A lot of nuisance from pub-goers, especially at the weekend." The neighbourhood Binnenstad-Noord clearly has two faces, charming and chaotic.
