Schiebroek is a mixed residential area with a strong sense of community, though not without its frustrations. Based on three reviews, one resident describes it as 'Ghetto Schiebroek', pointing to litter and pavement cycling as ongoing issues. Another notes that 'Schiebroek has deteriorated a lot in 5 years', while a third mentions 'lots of nuisance from loitering youths and mess in the canal'. That said, the area is popular with families, around a third of households have children, and the streets are lined with post-war housing.

During my daily walk from Kastanjesingel to Rhododendronplein, I took photos and made a collage of them. To my regret, this mess has been lying there for weeks and is only getting worse. Can't we provide willing residents with a litter picker and rubbish bags and/or reward the deposit can collectors with bags of rubbish? In addition, cycling on the pavement has become common practice, even on Sundays. When I step out of the garden with my dog, I have to look left and right to avoid being run over. And this has already happened once!

Auto-translated to English by AII was born here and still live here. Unfortunately, the neighbourhood has deteriorated a lot over the years. In the past, you could talk to anyone; Schiebroek was like a village community. People considered each other. People kept their neighbourhood tidy, etc. Nowadays, many of the current residents have moved away because they no longer feel it's their neighbourhood or have moved due to old age, passed away. Especially the increase in many residents who come from elsewhere, from other districts, countries. They have no connection with the area, have their own rules, customs, etc. They don't like nature, animals, etc., they think it's dirty. While those animals have belonged here for years and should stay, in the canals, trees, etc. Some don't care about anything, throw all sorts of things on the street, just next to the container, consider no one. As a result, unfortunately, much has become run-down, also more crime. The greenery is disappearing more and more, a lot of building going on while it was known as the green neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII like the neighbourhood. There are plenty of playgrounds and a petting zoo here. I'm a single mother, so it's really nice for my little daughter.
