I've been living in this neighbourhood for 5 years, and I've felt at home here since day 1 when we moved here! It's a cosy neighbourhood with lots of dogs, cats and families with young children! There are plenty of grass patches where I can walk my dog. Close to the metro and Alexandrium. So it's very accessible! I think it's a really nice neighbourhood!!!
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't lived here very long, but the type of housing isn't that great. Otherwise, it's quite a green neighbourhood with the Kralingse Plas nearby and lots of trees.

Auto-translated to English by AII feel at ease in the Alexanderpolder where I have lived my whole life.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood can be cosy but can also be very unsafe. There are 3 schools in the area, 2 primary schools, 1 secondary school, but there are plenty of shops.
