Quiet and friendly. Privacy. Help where needed.
Auto-translated to English by AII grew up here and had a good experience. I attended a good primary school. There are even several. For example, my brother went to a different primary school because that education was better for him. I live about a 10-minute bike ride from Nijmegen city centre, which is ideal. I am very enthusiastic about Lent and might even return there after my student days, which I will have soon.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is very pleasant to live in due to plenty of amenities and the children have enough space to play outdoors.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is clean and tidy. Little nuisance. I don't know my neighbours and there are no neighbourhood parties. I don't mind that. Sometimes there's bickering in the neighbourhood about very small things. That's annoying. Otherwise very positive! There's a forest within walking distance and supermarket and city within cycling distance. Enough schools in Nijmegen. Everything nice and close.
Auto-translated to English by AII am very happy that I have a nice social housing home in this day and age. But the neighbourhood is right next to the N325, which has become many times busier over the past 10 years. No one sticks to the 50 km/h limit and the road surface is poor, so unfortunately there is a lot of noise pollution. The municipality does nothing about it; social housing is at the bottom of the list, I believe. Furthermore, unfortunately a lot of rubbish is thrown onto the street. From the cars that race past, but also because there is no proper facility for residual waste and plastic, which is collected once every 2 weeks and is often put out far too early, so birds and other vermin tear everything open. Nijmegen and Lent have grown enormously in terms of housing facilities. Very nice, because there is a housing shortage, but the extreme differences between social housing policy and enormous luxury villa policy are unfortunately very large, and that does make you feel like a second-class citizen, unfortunately.

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.
