It's a fairly quiet area with a mix of ages, a quarter of residents are 65 or older. One resident, who gave the neighbourhood a 4.71 rating, says: "I've lived here for a year, there have been about 40 police cars at the door, 20 ambulances, and someone threatened to turn on the gas tap. People are being threatened, so yeah, strange neighbourhood." That's based on a single review, so take it as one person's experience. For more context, see the neighbourhood Surhuisterveen.

For school runs, OSG Singelland, a secondary school, is a five-minute walk, and Christelijke Basisschool De Bernebrege is also within walking distance.
