Life in the Tarwewijk
Residents give the Tarwewijk an average score of 6.83, based on five reviews. One resident says: "The neighbourhood is improving more and more each year. Thanks to the rent law, there were fewer slumlords and more and more families. It sometimes still has a bad reputation, but that is undeserved except for a few streets. The location is fantastic, metro, Zuidplein, city centre a quarter of an hour by bike. Zuiderpark is also around the corner and soon the Nelson Mandela park." Another resident notes: "Good, quiet, but the municipality could pay a bit more attention, like containers with an awful lot of mess. Green areas could certainly be better, and clean up the containers." A third resident mentions that "it can be busy at night but during the day it's usually quiet" and that "pollution is quite a problem, especially around overflowing bins where seagulls get at them." The neighbourhood has about 12,245 inhabitants, and 52% of households are single-person households. For more on the Tarwewijk neighbourhood, the reviews paint a picture of a diverse area with room for improvement.
