I experience the neighbourhood as very pleasant. Everyone is friendly, even though I don't know anyone. I sometimes find that a pity. Recently we had a market on the Dorpsstraat and then I felt very connected to my village. Events like that are very nice. By car, everything is just harder to reach than by bike. I also miss rubbish bins on the Dorpsstraat. You can hardly find any. That's why there is often litter on the pavement. Also, households should be encouraged more to install solar panels and remove as many paving stones as possible. Also, more charging points for electric cars should be installed in parking lots. Those are all tips to make it greener, but it's not that the neighbourhood is bad now.
