Personally, I live in a lovely neighbourhood. Nice neighbours, especially my dear immediate neighbours, an enormous amount of greenery and the first forest 200 metres away. Always well maintained (the greenery too). Parking is easy. I love my neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experiences with this neighbourhood are: It is a fairly quiet neighbourhood. People don't drop by unannounced. On the other hand, we are there for each other. That's the best part! When there's a party, we give proper notice. Personally, I think young people should be allowed to stay young, with e.g. an occasional party with blaring music, that's just part of our youth. The Rijdende Rechter hasn't been necessary here yet. Hopefully it stays that way.
Auto-translated to English by AIYou live a bit to yourself here, but I have good contact with my immediate neighbours. All neighbours greet each other. It's very nice to live here
Auto-translated to English by AImy experience with the neighbourhood is good because I live close to my parents and can walk everywhere
