How residents experience their neighbourhood
Ideally situated. Everything close by.
Auto-translated to English by AII myself lived in this neighbourhood with pleasure for over 20 years. Always enjoyed it, cosy atmosphere. Everyone knows us. All amenities are nearby. Even the station is at the end of the street. People from Groningen are very friendly, but there is a barrier to cross. If people would want to live here, they should certainly be aware of this.
Auto-translated to English by AIWinschoten is a cosy place with lots of people, shops and a nice centre. As for noise pollution, it's not too bad (I live right next to the centre myself) and everything is nicely nearby.

How residents experience their district
I've been living in Winschoten-Noord for years and it's lovely here. There are many parks nearby for nice walks with the dog and the children. The amenities are also in good order: schools, supermarket and a good connection to both the centre and Blauwestad. A few more charging points could be installed, but we can't complain in this neighbourhood. I also always feel safe.
Auto-translated to English by AIIdeally situated. Everything close by.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is located on the main road and within a short distance of all shops and opposite the beautiful forest! That makes up for a lot!
Auto-translated to English by AISuper good safe community. Hygiene is taken seriously here and the municipality provides a lot of information. Education is good, many schools. Secondary and for children. More houses are being built all the time, but they do stay away from nature, so that's a given. Everything is also easily accessible and there are many supermarkets.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery good. Never had any problems, lots of consideration for the children and enough schools in the area. All the important supermarkets that are easily accessible and a nice shopping centre. The houses are safe and more are being built all the time.

Auto-translated to English by AIIn my neighbourhood there are mainly social housing units. I clearly see the difference between people with low incomes and those with average incomes. It doesn't always feel safe to walk on the street, and a football cage a few metres from my house doesn't help either. I have to cycle past it and I'm not always spoken to kindly. Nine times out of ten there are rough youngsters into hardcore and such. The houses in this neighbourhood don't look their best either. People often have a huge mess in their garden and house. We haven't been home for a while, so me saying this is hypocritical. But that's been sorted for a long time now. People always leave their dog poop lying around. Also, everyone knows each other. We don't have a relationship with our neighbours, mainly because they're just chavs. That's why they're not always very nice to us. Furthermore, the walls here are paper-thin. So you can always hear people talking in the other house. Not word for word, of course. You can also hear people climbing the stairs. The types of people walking around here are always the same. We have at least three drug dealers living in the courtyard. Every now and then we see a deal happening. Then strange cars drive onto the parking lot and they get in, just like on TV. The bins aren't safe either. We try to remove them from the road as soon as they've been emptied. We've had it before that our bin disappeared or that people throw their rubbish in it while it's by the road. As I type this, I realise where I live hahahaha.
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood has green strips and several paths where children love to play. The neighbourhood is safe and is close to several schools and near a playground.

Auto-translated to English by AIA few bad apples are spoiling the atmosphere in the street. People don't want to take others into account. Vandalism of other people's property. Bullying and humiliation. Excessive behaviour.
