Experiences from Stadskern
How residents experience their district
My neighbourhood is very beautiful with nature and stories from the past. It is cosy and everything is easily accessible.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience is that the municipality does a lot to keep it as clean as possible. It looks fine and the houses are nice. I think the municipality should do something about the crooked streets and how things are not easily accessible for disabled people.

Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with lots of green. Close to the motorway, hospital, shops and schools.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, but there could be more playground equipment for the children. Better enforcement for the loitering youth.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful old trees, green neighbourhood in the district, 1930s houses, good atmosphere, friendly, warm-hearted people from different backgrounds. Harmony and everyone is there for each other. Good accessibility by bus, bike or car. Centrally located near the city centre and central station.
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything good. Lovely people, beautiful neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy neighbourhood, always quiet
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for three years now and I haven't experienced anything unpleasant or anything. Unfortunately, the neighbourhood is relatively far from shops, but I personally don't find it acceptable to constantly consume, so it's not a problem that shops are far away from my perspective. The neighbourhood is built on a small hill, which is why it's called the Bergkwartier. That's a disadvantage if you only have a bike, because it's quite a tough climb uphill. But 'every disadvantage has its advantage': cycling up the hill is good for your health... The neighbourhood doesn't have a neighbourhood watch. But all houses are well secured against burglary. I've never ended up in a bad situation at night. There is no loitering youth anywhere. I don't often read about burglaries in the neighbourhood, nor other crime. There is no community centre in this part of Amersfoort. There is a small restaurant here, about a hundred metres from my home. But I've never seen my neighbours there. So it's not a neighbourhood fathers' place, although it could have been. The neighbourhood consists of a mix of owner-occupied and (social) rental homes. But the majority are owner-occupied. Their condition is quite good. But people with a smaller budget also live here, and that's good because variety is good for social processes and life itself. The neighbourhood is easily accessible from other places in this city. I often walk in the forest; the forest is five hundred metres from my home, it's beautiful there, I find peace there, so I enjoy going there.
