Refreshing and renewed, that's what Leeuwensteyn is. More and more rental homes are being built, and that's a plus for me as a concierge if I want to keep living in Leidsche Rijn later on! More and more nature is also returning, with real effort put into it. Getting more beautiful and bigger by the day.

Leuke 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 AIThe neighbourhood is going downhill because there are people who don't integrate, throw rubbish down. I've lived here for 12 years, always with great pleasure, but the last 3 years it's been going downhill, a shame.
Auto-translated to English by AIParkwijk zuid is a nice little post-war neighbourhood near everything in Utrecht. But there are a few downsides.
Auto-translated to English by AIA wonderful environment to live in. Everything is within walking distance: shops, station, parks. Beautiful cycle paths and very good public transport. Little nuisance. City feel, yet a quiet environment. Primary school across the street and 3 secondary schools less than 10 minutes away by bike. I am privileged to live here, in a new-build apartment.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in this neighbourhood for 18 years. I feel safe. I can have a chat with the neighbours. You can play outside safely. There's also plenty of space to play outside. Many different people live here, which makes the neighbourhood cosier and livelier. The city is nearby. And in and around the neighbourhood itself there are many amenities. They are all easily accessible, whether by car, bike, public transport or on foot. And there are many different types of houses in my neighbourhood so there is something for everyone. There are many schools in the area. Secondary and primary. Not all schools are equally good, but there are plenty of options. The neighbourhood is generally quite clean, there isn't a lot of litter. However, you have to watch out for dog poo, which isn't always pleasant. One point for improvement I could mention is that apart from gardens, there is little greenery/nature. I find that a shame.

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 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 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.
