Very good · 1 resident
My neighbourhood lies in the middle of the polder. With 22 houses we form a small community. Where neighbours still stand up for each other. Having breakfast outside in summer and only hearing the woodpecker and the pheasants. There is also a neighbourhood day, something different each year. Unfortunately, our little neighbourhood is now threatened by the likely arrival of an electricity plant. Our resistance to this—it will be the size of 27 football fields—increases our solidarity even more. Because our little piece of Zeeland Flanders is so precious to us.
