Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a lovely neighbourhood to live in. I feel very safe.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur Waterkwartier is a cosy neighbourhood. Not far from the centre. It has a mixed community. Various cosy eateries in the area. And of course a good school. The elderly have also been catered for with various residential locations including the Griffioen. All kinds of activities are organised there. And there is also a good neighbourhood restaurant.
Auto-translated to English by AIWhat a top location to live! I've been living here for almost 10 years and I really enjoy it! All amenities and motorways are nearby. It could be a bit greener though, and especially the tunnel at the central station could be safer.
Auto-translated to English by AIHygiene: the waste policy in the neighbourhood causes a lot of vermin. Residual waste and plastic waste are put out on the street in bags. The residual waste in particular stinks. Another problem is that the waste is collected early on Monday morning, making it difficult for students to dispose of waste easily. My house and several other student houses in the area therefore sometimes had the problem that waste piled up significantly because no one was home on Sunday evening to put the waste out. Housing: many buildings have been poorly maintained for years, poorly insulated. From the outside, however, they are beautiful. As far as greenery is concerned, it could always be better in my opinion, but we certainly don't have it bad.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood close to the city centre. Many amenities such as supermarkets, bakeries and drugstores within walking distance. Little nuisance and friendly residents in the neighbourhood. As a woman, I never feel unsafe in the neighbourhood, I have never been catcalled or harassed. I think the area is a pleasant mix of new builds and characterful houses. But I am glad there are plans for a better connection to the city, the tunnel towards the city feels unpleasant in the evening and at night. In addition, hopefully there will be an entrance to the station from our neighbourhood.

How residents experience their municipality
Quiet and friendly. Privacy. Help where needed.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's very well organised here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are many people who throw rubbish everywhere and some who turn their balcony into a dump.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet neighbourhood, close to nature and the city centre
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's pleasant to live here. Residents are very sociable with each other.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is nice. There are kind people around you and you have people from young to old. There are shops nearby that I can quickly get to as a student, and homes that aren't too expensive.
Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for 25 years with great pleasure, but in recent years it has become very different. Previously, everyone knew each other and greeted each other. For the elderly, the front path was cleared when it snowed, errands were done, etc. If I hadn't seen someone for a while, I would go and ask how they were. And now... you hear that people lie dead in their homes for 4 weeks and no one notices. Pff, but luckily I'm not like that and I remain loyal to my neighbourhood and go and check in. But unfortunately, the sense of community is completely gone. Now new people move in and you don't even know their names. Very sad. I wish the old days could come back.
