Lively and from young to old it makes it much more fun to live here

It is a social neighbourhood of students, young people, families and many single people. People greet each other easily. With the many pubs it is lively, little going on. I experience it as a social neighbourhood where people are there for each other and easily strike up a conversation. I feel safe here in the neighbourhood and don't mind taking a walk in the evening. Many shops, GPs, pharmacy, supermarket, hairdressers and dining options. Also very nice that there are children living in the area and the community centre is always nice to stay with many activities.

Cosy

It's a cosy and, in my opinion, fairly safe neighbourhood. I've never felt uncomfortable, at least. Not during the day or late at night. I don't experience much nuisance and am otherwise very happy with the place where I live.

A beautiful and tidy neighbourhood, but I sometimes miss social contact with my neighbours.

I think it's a very nice neighbourhood, very tidy and beautiful, and I really enjoy it. The neighbourhood is also very close to the centre, so I can easily get everywhere. Paddepoel or Selwerd are a bit far away, but I hardly ever go there anyway. I sometimes miss social contact with neighbours, and a few more communal spaces in the neighbourhood would be nice.

Heat stress is how much the immediate area heats up extra on warm days: a lot of stone, asphalt and little greenery retain heat, making it feel noticeably warmer than outside built-up areas. The 2050 projection assumes the high climate scenario. Source: Klimaateffectatlas.
