How residents experience their district
There's a relaxed atmosphere here in the neighbourhood. Everyone gets along well. Unfortunately, we do regularly have trouble with loitering youths, especially in the evenings. This gives a rather unsafe feeling, as I've also heard stories of street robberies. We would therefore like to see more police presence, as there is hardly any here. There are many schools in the area, so that's fine. There are also plenty of supermarkets, as well as snack bars and cinemas, for example. The city centre is also close by. It's reasonably clean here, but it could be better. The neighbourhood is easily accessible by car, bike, and on foot.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's great to have the park nearby. There are several supermarkets and shopping centres to choose from. The city is also very easy to reach. I just think it's difficult to get to Emiclaer by car.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood Het Gein is a positive but also a flexible neighbourhood. We have both a train station and a bus station nearby. Amersfoort Schothorst. The cycle paths are fine, set apart from the road. They are open streets, which provides a lot of overview and thus remains public.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for 12 years and it's truly a beautiful neighbourhood! However, we regularly have trouble with young people hanging around the school playground. We also see very little police, which is a real shame. Our street is very cosy, but unfortunately it's not like we regularly visit each other for coffee or anything, I'd like to see more of that. The neighbourhood is easily accessible by both public transport and car. There are more than enough amenities in the area, such as supermarkets, sports clubs, playgrounds, schools, etc. As mentioned, there are many schools, both primary, secondary and higher education. Education here is actually very good. All in all, it's a very nice, well-equipped and sociable neighbourhood, but we would really appreciate seeing more police.

How residents experience their municipality
Ydylische groene authentieke buurt. Gemêleerde mensen dat maakt de buurt bijzonder. Vriendelijk nieuwsgierig maar vooral mooie mensen.
Auto-translated to English by AIthere is a lot of green in my neighbourhood, but there are also many old people
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with lots of green. Close to the motorway, hospital, shops and schools.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, but there could be more playground equipment for the children. Better enforcement for the loitering youth.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful old trees, green neighbourhood in the district, 1930s houses, good atmosphere, friendly, warm-hearted people from different backgrounds. Harmony and everyone is there for each other. Good accessibility by bus, bike or car. Centrally located near the city centre and central station.
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything good. Lovely people, beautiful neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy neighbourhood, always quiet
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for three years now and I haven't experienced anything unpleasant or anything. Unfortunately, the neighbourhood is relatively far from shops, but I personally don't find it acceptable to constantly consume, so it's not a problem that shops are far away from my perspective. The neighbourhood is built on a small hill, which is why it's called the Bergkwartier. That's a disadvantage if you only have a bike, because it's quite a tough climb uphill. But 'every disadvantage has its advantage': cycling up the hill is good for your health... The neighbourhood doesn't have a neighbourhood watch. But all houses are well secured against burglary. I've never ended up in a bad situation at night. There is no loitering youth anywhere. I don't often read about burglaries in the neighbourhood, nor other crime. There is no community centre in this part of Amersfoort. There is a small restaurant here, about a hundred metres from my home. But I've never seen my neighbours there. So it's not a neighbourhood fathers' place, although it could have been. The neighbourhood consists of a mix of owner-occupied and (social) rental homes. But the majority are owner-occupied. Their condition is quite good. But people with a smaller budget also live here, and that's good because variety is good for social processes and life itself. The neighbourhood is easily accessible from other places in this city. I often walk in the forest; the forest is five hundred metres from my home, it's beautiful there, I find peace there, so I enjoy going there.
