Student-like and cosy neighbourhood where everyone gets along well.

I moved to the Zeeheldenbuurt in mid-2021. My first impression was immediately positive, a nice neighbourhood where students, starters and families live together. However, more communal facilities and amenities (think meeting places) would be a good addition to the neighbourhood.
