The Lage Mors neighbourhood
Lage Mors is a mixed area with a strong urban feel, where 47% of households are single-person and 25% are families with children. The one review of the neighbourhood, based on a single resident's experience, is not glowing: "It used to be a very pleasant neighbourhood. Nowadays, nobody considers others anymore. The maintenance by the municipality and of private gardens is also very poor." That is one perspective, and it is worth weighing against the practical advantages of living here. The area is densely populated, with a high address density that reflects its urban character. For a sense of the wider context, the Lage Mors neighbourhood page has more detail on what it is like to live here.
Life on the street
The daily routine here is straightforward. For groceries, Jumbo is just around the corner, with Aldi and an AH to go a bit further at about 1.3 kilometres. For families, De Morskring primary school is a ten-minute walk away, and Basisschool Pacelli is a similar distance. The park or green space is on your doorstep, which is handy for a quick break outdoors. The train station is 1.6 kilometres away, so a commute by rail is feasible but not immediate. The municipality of Leiden has more on the wider area.
