How residents experience their neighbourhood
I think it's a nice neighbourhood, but I do think there should be more places for the hanging out youth.
Auto-translated to English by AIIncredibly cosy fresh neighbourhood. You notice that many young people live here but there is relatively little nuisance. Although there are nice bars in the area. Also, at New Year's there is a nice tradition of making a fire on the roundabout, very cosy!!

How residents experience their district
It's the first time I live in the city, so it took some getting used to, but the neighbourhood immediately feels like coming home. It's very quiet, yet there's always something going on. Everything you need is within walking distance, so you never have to stress if you need something. A nice little park right on your doorstep, where you can sit comfortably and enjoyably (especially in summer).
Auto-translated to English by AIDespite the population density, quiet and pleasant
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with many families and people of different ages and lifestyles. There is a Spar, cafeteria, hairdresser, electronics shop, bicycle shop, primary school and an after-school childcare all within a maximum of 3 minutes' walk. Children can play in the large playground located between the after-school childcare and the primary school, and for the older children the city is just around the corner and you can get there quickly by bike.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt was a very social neighbourhood. People looked out for and helped each other. That hasn't completely disappeared, but due to many new residents who prefer to keep to themselves, the sense of community is diminishing. However, we do have a neighbourhood association including a building with many connecting activities for everyone. A beautiful pond with a playground that are well maintained and heavily used. People here generally have a green heart, so you won't find any tiled paradises like in Vinkhuizen, allowing animals such as hedgehogs, birds, and insects to live here too. Orange neighbourhood is my neighbourhood!!!
Auto-translated to English by AILived there my whole life with great pleasure. Always cosy, nice neighbours. Park around the corner. Great!
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is pleasant living in Kostverloren. Quiet neighbourhood. Mix of students, elderly and young families. Nice communal garden. Very occasionally nuisance in the neighbourhood, that can be counted on one hand per year.

Auto-translated to English by AIPeople are friendly, I enjoy living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is always something to do. There are supermarkets and plenty of other shops, cafeterias, fresh bread from the bakery. Market once a week, a nice park with ponds for fishing.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, it's safe to cycle home in the evening but it's not super either. And there is a huge piece of nature
Auto-translated to English by AIActually, everything is just fine. There are several eateries in the neighbourhood, supermarkets are close by, bus stops, you can park your bike easily, and with the city beach there is also a beautiful and well-known green area.
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything in the neighbourhood: shops, sports facilities, schools, community centres. So something for everyone.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a shopping centre opposite here so I always have something to see and never get bored
Auto-translated to English by AIVery beautiful neighbourhood in Groningen. Lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops. What is unpleasant is that there is often rubbish next to the bins. Furthermore, the neighbourhood has many nice small parks and you are within no time in a quiet natural environment where you can enjoy walking, running, cycling etc. All in all, this neighbourhood is perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers.
