This is a dense, urban pocket where most residents live alone, and the streets have a mixed, sometimes edgy character.

Another notes: "Occasionally strange people on the street, especially at night, no burglaries though. Small houses for a hefty price unfortunately." The reviews reflect a neighbourhood with some social challenges, but also a sense of resilience. The Frederik Hendrikbuurt-Zuidoost neighbourhood is home to many young adults, with a high share of one-person households.
