I have the feeling that this small district, Geuzenkwartier, is somewhat forgotten and lies in the shadow of Statenkwartier. Parking is a real big problem here with the many small narrow streets.

Experiences from Geuzen- en Statenkwartier
How residents experience their district
It is a fantastically beautiful neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIStatenkwartier is a lively neighbourhood where people who speak many languages live. This makes it a very diverse group of residents. Nature is close by in the form of parks and woodland. Beautiful and truly old houses give it a stately character and create atmosphere. The streets are long and wide with many trees. I feel very safe here, and having the big shopping street of the Fred so close by is perfect! There are also many activities organised for residents, both young and old. The streets are generally quite clean, sometimes some litter but not much. There are also many primary and secondary schools in the area. Accessibility is excellent with trams and buses running very frequently and until late in the evening from the city centre or the beach, very convenient! You can easily manage without a car in this neighbourhood as a couple of two without children. One point for improvement: more space is needed for all the bicycles.
