Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is very child-friendly and easily accessible. Car-friendly because only destination traffic comes through. The area is well maintained by the municipality. When you walk around the neighbourhood, everyone is very friendly, with a supermarket nearby and several schools nearby, making it a perfect place for everyone. Barneveld Zuid train station makes it ideal to go in any direction.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery religious, if you look different people aren't very nice to you, plus it often stinks of death because of a feed factory near Noord I think, otherwise nice nature within a short distance and very quiet but there's also nothing to do there.

Auto-translated to English by AII think the neighbourhood consists of separate islands and much more should be done to make it a bit cosier! A neighbourhood barbecue or something! Now nothing happens! There is little nature in our area so that's a bit boring and in our village there is a café, 1 supermarket and some other shops but I would like a square with a terrace for the cosiness of the village

Auto-translated to English by AIThat student Kay doesn't really get it. A great community to live in, unfortunately that does make houses expensive. Hardworking people who let their hair down every now and then, and the Sunday peace is also a delight. They should do that everywhere. But other than that, I don't want to waste any more words on it; I'd say feel free to come and have a look and experience it for yourself.
