Bosch en Vaart scores an 8.3 out of 10 from residents, based on two reviews. One resident calls it "Lively but anonymous": "By lively I mean that there are many hip young people living here and there are many amenities and infrastructure in the neighbourhood, but it is anonymous because people don't really know each other." Another simply says "Cool" and notes "Everything close to a nice forest, not much hassle." The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many families and older residents, and most homes are owner-occupied. It's a strongly urban area with plenty going on.

By lively I mean that there are many hip young people living here and there are many amenities and infrastructure in the neighbourhood, but it is anonymous because people don't really know each other. You live there and know your neighbours, but you don't really know your neighbours' neighbours. Many people move often.
