My experience in this neighbourhood is that it is one of the safest neighbourhoods in the Steenwijk area, although there is slight nuisance from drug dealing and junkies who go into, for example, the park at the popular pond.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood to live in, people are very much to themselves. Few playgrounds that look decent for small children. Very good schools though. An Albert Heijn and a snack bar and the centre a 20-minute walk away... Bus facilities I personally don't find very convenient.
