You have to be strong to live in Eck en Wiel in a rental home. The owner-occupied homes are okay. My experience is that it's better there. Of course, there's a village idiot like in every neighbourhood. In this case, there are several who keep their curtains closed and no longer open the door just like that. Young children cannot play outside alone. Everything is swept under the rug or dismissed. There are also fortunately many nice people. However, that doesn't change the fact that I have never experienced anything like this before. Terrible, just move somewhere else if you still have the choice. I enjoy walking the dog in the city more. There are no areas where the dog can run off-leash. There is a small playground for very young children. Furthermore, Eck en Wiel is not child-friendly. They can play on the pavement. The cars drive too fast. Nothing is done about it. There is also constant noise from music or dogs. Even at night.
