I've lived here for 14 years and I'll stay here with my daughter. Here in Overschie there's quite a lot to do and shops are within walking distance. Public transport is central here in Overschie for young and old. I don't have real contact with neighbours because I work and sometimes we cross paths. In our block we are there for each other if needed. A downside is that often at night cars are in the street with young people, which can be very annoying. For example... laughing gas, loud music, alcohol and drugs!! But to be honest, we enjoy it here..!!
Auto-translated to English by AIPlus points: everyone in the neighbourhood often chats with each other, which keeps the bond with the neighbours fun and cosy. Downside: it's a shame that not much is organised for the young people in the neighbourhood.
