Overwhere-Noord is a neighbourhood where people tend to stay put. One resident, who has lived here for 45 years, says: 'No problem, I've lived here for 45 years, so I'm certainly happy. When someone passes away, we fly the flag at half-mast and honour them. Our flats have been renovated, completely maintenance-free, everyone is happy. Bus at the door, supermarket etc. 5 minutes walk, all that.' Another describes it as 'Green and safe' and notes a decent shopping centre nearby. The area has a mix of ages, with a noticeable share of older residents, and the overall feel is calm and well-kept. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Overwhere-Noord.

Auto-translated to English by AINo problem, I've lived here for 45 years, so I'm certainly happy. When someone passes away, we fly the flag at half-mast and honour them. Our flats have been renovated, completely maintenance-free, everyone is happy. Bus at the door, supermarket etc. 5 minutes walk, all that. Older, so it's nice to live here.
Auto-translated to English by AICan live here nicely, everything renovated, although there is often gossiping and peeping. I close my door and mind my own business, that's best. I certainly wouldn't want to be carried out of here and hopefully I can someday return to my hometown Hoorn, but for now it's okay.
Auto-translated to English by AIHave been living here for over a year and a half with great pleasure. Neighbourly help and cosy. More trees, for shade when it's hot.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood (apartment block), nice people, everyone greets each other. Fun gatherings. Always a chat.
