How residents experience their municipality
Traffic dangerous, people drive too fast and the street is narrow, two speed bumps would not be a luxury and speed control would not be out of place, but I have lived here for 46 years with great pleasure, the neighbourhood is cosy.
Auto-translated to English by AIwhat a shit neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AILook, you have everything in the neighbourhood: schools, city centre, supermarkets, etc. It's a bit less cosy than some other neighbourhoods in Arnhem, but certainly not bad.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice to live
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here since I was a child. It's a very cosy and safe neighbourhood. It's also great for children. A park nearby and many peers.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for over 2 years with pleasure! Nice neighbourhood with a shopping centre nearby. I regularly see people walking around cleaning up litter. Commendable!!
Auto-translated to English by AII live in a green environment where I get a lot of peace, it is a child-friendly neighbourhood and you have all amenities nearby
Auto-translated to English by AIWhen I moved here it was a reasonably good neighbourhood! but my sense of safety was gone within a few months! Someone was murdered near my flat and a while ago a firework bomb exploded at a house in the street behind my flat! "Maybe more/often police on the street"?
