How residents experience their neighbourhood
In reports there is mention of theft from cars. At weekends sometimes fireworks from LHC. The municipality does a lot of maintenance on greenery, truly fantastic.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt was once a nice neighbourhood but not anymore. Nothing is being fixed in the apartment, it's draughty everywhere and damp, nothing is done about it, yet paying almost 800 euros. At the front, rats are running around, people have had rats on their balcony, the weeds are very high, almost up to the balcony.

I've never really had any problems in the mentioned areas, hence I gave everything at least a 7. Although I think the problems that exist are more problems that are the same throughout the Netherlands.

Auto-translated to English by AILived here for 34 years, the area has deteriorated, gardens etc. are very dirty, not a tidy neighbourhood, what could be improved in this area is that more maintenance is done on greenery and the streets.
