Kleverpark-noord, Haarlem

Based on two reviews, residents appreciate the area's convenience and diversity. One resident says: 'Through urban renewal we moved from a working-class neighbourhood where we lived very cosily to the Kleverpark. A neighbourhood for the better class. We've now lived here for over 30 years and see the area changing into a real yuppie neighbourhood. Complete with cargo bikes and conversations that contain more English words than Dutch.' Another notes: 'I think the neighbourhood is fine. It's positive that you can separate waste nearby, there are supermarkets close by and you're a 15-minute walk from the station.' The neighbourhood Kleverpark-noord is densely built-up with mostly families and couples, and a mix of owner-occupied and rental homes.

Positive. Through urban renewal we moved from a working-class neighbourhood where we lived very cosily to the Kleverpark. A neighbourhood for the better class. We've now lived here for over 30 years and see the area changing into a real yuppie neighbourhood. Complete with cargo bikes and conversations that contain more English words than Dutch.
Auto-translated to English by AII think the neighbourhood is fine. I think it's positive that you can separate waste nearby, there are supermarkets close by and you're a 15-minute walk from the station. Some downsides are that there is very little parking space and the streets are narrow, making parking difficult and you have to stop for oncoming traffic. Also, the shops closing at 8, sometimes 9 o'clock, I find a bit too early. I don't really have any complaints about the area, this is my first home away from my parents, and I'm quite happy with the setting.
