Don't dare to go outside in the evenings anymore
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's always safe during the day, but walking the streets at night in the dark is impossible as a woman. Also often seen police chases near shopping centre Nova. Housing is good. More and nicer greenery would improve the neighbourhood. As would making it car-free and banning mopeds.

Experiences from Zuidwest
How residents experience their district
The houses are going to the immigrant community and status holders AZC. Neighbourhood is getting dirtier, stinks, neighbourhood no longer has neighbour contacts, everyone just does their own thing.
Auto-translated to English by AIGoing well, contact with fellow residents friendly and attentive
Auto-translated to English by AIDon't dare to go outside in the evenings anymore
Auto-translated to English by AISuch a beautiful neighbourhood and it keeps getting more beautiful, especially with the improvements to the Jutfaseweg.
Auto-translated to English by AIA pleasant, easily accessible neighbourhood with many amenities, close to the centre. Great!
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the moment the neighbourhood is not very safe. Drugs are traded on the car park, laughing gas is also used, cartridges lie on the car park. Then the rubbish bins... are emptied poorly, everyone dumps bulky waste next to them... So yes, the neighbourhood is going downhill fast! Enforcement is hard to find, as is the police.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a good neighbourhood to live in with a large shopping centre a 5-minute walk away, two smaller ones on either side of the large shopping centre, and then the city centre is 5-6 minutes away by tram. There is a secondary school (Unic), a public primary school (Anne Frank School) and an international primary school in the area. There is also a sports club nearby where children can join for tennis, hockey, football, gymnastics, baseball, etc. There are bus stops everywhere and a tram runs through the neighbourhood, making it easily accessible. There are plenty of playgrounds, although they could do with a bit of sprucing up. It's a fairly quiet neighbourhood and I've never really had any trouble with people. There is little to no unrest in the area and there is also a police station close by. The streets can be dirty now and then, but there are always people from the neighbourhood who voluntarily keep them clean themselves. Sometimes the rubbish can sit by the bins a bit too long. There is greenery everywhere and there is a park nearby where you can enjoy a lovely walk in the evening. The only thing missing is a clear sense of community in the neighbourhood, but they are trying to create more togetherness with the neighbourhood drinks that are held, the community centre and the regular meetings.

Experiences from Utrecht
How residents experience their municipality
De Nieuwegracht is een rustige en schone kant van het centrum van Utrecht. Aan de overkant ligt een mooi park en een grote weide. Hier is het over het algemeen rustig, soms helaas niet heel schoon. Op de wandelpaden liggen op sommige plekken erg veel sigaretten. De buurt is erg goed bereikbaar op de fiets en te voet. De auto is niet aan te raden, hoewel de Nieuwegracht in vergelijking met de Oudegracht en Twijnstraat veel makkelijker is voor auto's.
Auto-translated to English by AILeuke gemixte buurt waar mensen oog voor elkaar hebben en het rustig wonen is. Het grootste voordeel is dat alle voorzieningen dichtbij zijn zoals Leidsche Rijn centrum, winkelcentrum parkwijk, bushalte, treinstation, scholen, sportclubs, parken, bioscoop en horeca.
Auto-translated to English by AIHeerlijk rustige buurt op slechts 20 minuten afstand van het centrum van Utrecht. Park Hoge Weide, scholen, supermarkten en sportvoorzieningen zijn om de hoek.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighborhood is considered safe, has an active and engaged community, and is well maintained. Neighborhood relations are good. Residents have access to quality housing, reputable schools, and attractive green spaces such as Wilhelminapark, Oosterspoorbaan and Minstroom. The centre is within reach, and Oost offers a nice number of shops.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy, student-like, park on the doorstep, where people sit when the weather is nice. Pub in the neighbourhood, shopping centre within walking distance and Kanaalstraat nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AILunetten zuid is a fairly extensive area, but there are common characteristics: There is little traffic on the streets, even the ring road is relatively quiet. Many houses are situated around a shared green space with some play facilities. This quickly creates a bond with the neighbours. Because Lunetten is separated from the city by a park and forts, which are part of the UNESCO heritage, it has some village-like features. If you value your privacy and don't like contact, then Leidsche rijn is more likely a place where you'll feel at home. Lunetten is not a place of high fences, but rather has a scent of granola with a hint of wokeness. If you feel at home with that, you are very welcome, but if you are not willing to do something for the neighbourhood or your neighbours, there are plenty of other places where you will feel at home.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in Zuilen for 26 years and still consider it one of the best neighbourhoods in Utrecht. With shops, schools, buses and the train station all nearby, everything is within reach. And with the beautiful Julianapark just around the corner, the area also has a lovely place to relax. As far as I'm concerned, an absolute top location.
Auto-translated to English by AIEspecially great that there are so many nice shops in the area. The walks to the Muntkade and Park Oog en Al also often make my day. The house I live in is old and hasn't been properly maintained by the landlord for a long time.
