I've been living here for a year now, and it's an affordable place to live in Eindhoven. Clearly a lower-income household area, but definitely safe and pleasant. Supermarkets are always nearby; I personally would have liked more recreational facilities, such as sports. I'm also quite disappointed in the accessibility by public transport. There is only one bus in my neighbourhood, which runs only once an hour during many parts of the day. It only goes to the station. I would have liked to see more buses with different routes and destinations running more frequently. There is plenty of green space in principle, which is very nice, but I would have liked to see more larger walking areas with routes, especially on the edge of the city.
