One resident describes the area as "Cosy, but messy": "It's always cosy and people get along well. There's a supermarket nearby and meadows and nature within walking distance. It's easily accessible by car, bike and public transport. However, there's a lot of dirt on the streets and a lot of bulky waste." That single review gives a mixed picture, but the positives are clear. The neighbourhood has a strong urban feel, with a high density of addresses. Many households are singles, and there is a good mix of ages, from young children to older residents. This is [the Vrijheidswijk-West neighbourhood]( /buurt/vrijheidswijk-west-leeuwarden/) as it is today.

About Victoriestraat 7D, Leeuwarden
The rent is €771 per month for a 71 square metre apartment with an A energy label. This is a social housing rental, so the price is set at a regulated level. With no other comparable rentals currently available in the neighbourhood, it is hard to benchmark, but the price reflects the social housing framework rather than the open market.
An A label is the most efficient category, so you can expect relatively low energy costs compared to homes with lower labels. The label is an official registration, and it indicates the home performs well on energy efficiency. This should keep your monthly outgoings for heating and electricity more manageable.

How residents experience their municipality
You can sum it up as follows: > My experience with the Bloemenbuurt is very negative. In two consecutive situations, we had neighbours who caused a lot of nuisance. There were concerns about drug activities, the safety of children, and serious incidents in the neighbourhood, including a car explosion. As a result, I don't feel safe here and I wouldn't choose to live in this neighbourhood myself. The housing is reasonable, but in my opinion, the houses on Azaleastraat are in need of a thorough renovation. Additionally, there are few to no amenities in the immediate vicinity, which does not improve the liveability of the neighbourhood. Based on my personal experiences, I would therefore not recommend the Bloemenbuurt as a place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIAtmospheric neighbourhood with nice neighbours. Houses with a stately character interspersed with smaller workers' cottages. You can feel the history, you can walk straight into the city centre.
Auto-translated to English by AIAfter living in this neighbourhood for many years, a lot has changed in the meantime; many neighbours cause division among the residents, and they just do whatever they can't help doing. It must be the times, but it used to be nice living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone keeps to themselves but it's a calm and peaceful neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have lived in Weidum since 1972. A bullseye, we can say. Our neighbourhood, Sânpaad, is fantastic. Young and old join in when something is organised. Many of our own young people stay living here. An enormous amount is organised, namely: kaatsen, cards, billiards (4 tables), folk dancing, badminton, fair, Christmas ball, 55+ party, etc. etc. It is a great pity that no building is allowed. We hope to be able to stay here for years to come. Weidum "boppe".

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived there for 55 years, so that says enough.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have little contact with the neighbours and other residents. Sometimes you do see things that don't belong in the neighbourhood.
