Experiences from Zoetermeer
How residents experience their municipality
I live here with great pleasure. It is a quiet, green and pleasant neighbourhood where you can enjoy walking and nature. Everything you need is nearby (such as shops, public transport and other amenities). The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere. I feel safe here and can definitely recommend this neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice and cosy neighbourhood to live in.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe live in a beautiful apartment on the Bentwoud and enjoy it every day in every season! The Bentwoud in particular is excellently maintained!!! The synergy and looking out for each other in the apartment complex disappoints us! That could be better! Otherwise, we live here just fine, and we also feel safe here!
Auto-translated to English by AIWe live on the Bentwoud, and you can see, smell and feel it! I always have the feeling that we live in a healthy environment! We also feel safe in the beautiful apartment building. The only thing that disappoints us is the sense of community in our complex Panoramique Bentwoud. Neighbours hardly know each other and have little interest in others. We often organise something but there is little to no interest, a shame especially because there are many elderly people living there who could use some help and/or attention!
Auto-translated to English by AIWe live in a nice neighbourhood, sometimes there's a bit of trouble but where isn't there. Lovely house, nice neighbours and everything is easily accessible. In our flat we help each other when needed and there's also social control. We're having a great time here.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have shops, a tram and other businesses in the neighbourhood, such as a gym to provide for us. There are many trees and nature here, which makes it very quiet. Only it is often dirty and dull-coloured buildings that made the neighbourhood a bit boring.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighborhood is really quiet, sometimes too quiet in my opinion.
