The neighbourhood is active but not unsafe; there are shops and amenities within walking distance, so you can easily buy a döner and do your shopping at Albert Heijn. There are a few homeless people here who are a bit chaotic, but if you mind your own business, nothing happens.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery often nuisance from people (foreign) who share houses here with too many people. And leave rubbish everywhere on the street. And sometimes I don't feel safe on the street.
