How residents experience their neighbourhood
I help Bibi Fazal from the Welschenflats. She tries to give people with a small budget little groceries that residents of Overschie donate. She selflessly offers help with clothing, organises things, and sometimes cooks. Makes Christmas and Easter more fun and works together with Plus, Zeeman, the Protestant church, etc. The help is small-scale but more and more people join in. I think that's a boost. And HWD every Tuesday jumble sale and singers performing and working together with other parties that do something social for the elderly and young people. Thea and Chris cook 100 meals every week for lonely vulnerable elderly people on Tuesdays, free of charge. And recently second-hand clothing and bric-a-brac knick-knacks on Thursday in a little shop at Ameide Street, 10 to 2. So many good initiatives done through cooperation by volunteers. Top people. And the volunteers of Schoon en Heel Roelland, from the board and Leefbaar, who focus on what can be improved.

A very nice neighbourhood. The airport is nearby, but you don't hear a thing. Zestienhovenpark is great for walking or jogging. Many families with children live here. There is a lot of greenery and you see many birds. The best neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for 14 years and I'll stay here with my daughter. Here in Overschie there's quite a lot to do and shops are within walking distance. Public transport is central here in Overschie for young and old. I don't have real contact with neighbours because I work and sometimes we cross paths. In our block we are there for each other if needed. A downside is that often at night cars are in the street with young people, which can be very annoying. For example... laughing gas, loud music, alcohol and drugs!! But to be honest, we enjoy it here..!!
Auto-translated to English by AIAlways people who are open to you no matter what happens. Also, every Christmas we always go outside for a cosy cup of hot chocolate. Other than that, a beautiful neighbourhood with lovely people and nice nature!

Auto-translated to English by AIPlus points: everyone in the neighbourhood often chats with each other, which keeps the bond with the neighbours fun and cosy. Downside: it's a shame that not much is organised for the young people in the neighbourhood.

Het is net een klein dorpje, je kunt overal fijn heen fietsen of lopen. Er is ook openbaar vervoer wat het nog makkelijker maakt om ergens heen te gaan. Niet al te ver van het centrum af.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for a few years. There's litter on the ground. But the supermarkets are good in the neighbourhood and there's a community centre. Nice!
Auto-translated to English by AIA very nice neighbourhood. The airport is nearby, but you don't hear a thing. Zestienhovenpark is great for walking or jogging. Many families with children live here. There is a lot of greenery and you see many birds. The best neighbourhood

Auto-translated to English by AIWell, I was born here so I grew up with the neighbourhood as it is now.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is improving more and more each year. Thanks to the rent law, there are 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.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe facilities and the apartment itself are nice. But around the building there is a lot of rubbish on the street and junkies.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is and remains a village
