How residents experience their neighbourhood
Lots of orthodox Christians. I just get stared at when I wear trousers. And in the village itself there are actually a lot of loitering youths and stuff.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeen at it for 41 years trying to keep the hall and stairwell of my flat at least somewhat hygienic, with no cooperation from fellow residents and also not from the housing corporation, now almost 73 and tired of fighting, longing for a solution, so much want to spend the years I have left with living pleasure………

Experiences from Ridderkerk
How residents experience their municipality
Lots of orthodox Christians. I just get stared at when I wear trousers. And in the village itself there are actually a lot of loitering youths and stuff.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur housing association actually does nothing to make the neighbourhood more attractive. As an example where I live, the 4 seasons, the Lente gild to try to make it more attractive. I tried talking to the housing association about this, but missed opportunity. Too bad.
Auto-translated to English by AINo activities for adults. And certainly the housing association Wooncompas does nothing at all for us, in our complex where many elderly people live. Too bad.
Auto-translated to English by AIFor me, Slikkerveer feels like a quiet and green place with a village atmosphere, where it's nice to live, although I do notice that it's not always easy to reach from Rotterdam because there is no direct train connection.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience with the neighbourhood is good; the people in the neighbourhood are very helpful. People don't mind helping each other, and the elderly are also helped in the neighbourhood, for example with putting the wheelie bin out on the street and bringing it back in, or doing a small errand for them. It is also safe to live in this neighbourhood. The greenery could be a bit better with some more colour, but it is maintained. Across from the neighbourhood is a primary school, and the neighbourhood is very accessible. The shops are also easy to reach on foot or by bike. I have lived here for over 25 years with great pleasure.
