Alley not lit by street lamps. Responsibility lies with the housing association. I have a broken little toe from protruding sleepers of a garden in the alley. Ventilation system doesn't work. Draft, mould, water under crawl space. There was also a visit from a company regarding energy level. C was personal, will become B for business. The housing association in question is difficult to communicate with, in my experience. Same with the pavements in the alley and the drain I called the relevant department about, but still need to report it. The neighbourhood. I've only just moved here and what strikes me is that there are no rubbish bins where you can, for example, dispose of your dog's waste. I also see that people dump waste in the private woodland areas where you're allowed to walk, including the poop bags. And then the pavements. Dangerous! And in the neighbourhood itself, people drive too fast. I don't get too worked up about it, but I actually find it quite annoying. The greenery, walking paths, private woods where you can walk are beautiful. With diversity of flora and fauna. But again, I see stepped-on mushrooms, plastic, cans, bottles, and much more. I take with me what I can take. But actually, there should be a bin at the beginning of the path, which is on municipal land. I notice little of the community. I'm quite a loner. When I walk the dog, people are friendly. It has become a reasonably mixed village.
Auto-translated to English by AII notice a lot of incompetence in prejudices about appearance, your dog, waste, other people's belongings, nuisance from cats, poor maintenance of pavements, alleyways without lighting and poor paving. Little information about possible help for the less fortunate. Water damage in gardens and surroundings. Car tyres are always flat in certain parking spots. Setting off fireworks too early. And probably more.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a lovely green area with all amenities nearby. The only thing I miss is a lunchroom/coffee shop/restaurant.

About Molenwijk 3A, Smilde
The asking price is 74% above the average asking price in Smilde-Centrum (€531,727) and is the highest of the 11 homes currently for sale. However, this home is also 45% larger than the average (182 m²) and sits on a large plot of 2,080 m² with an A++ energy label. Whether it's fair depends on how you value the extra space and efficiency compared to other homes in the area.
An A++ label means the home is extremely energy-efficient, so you can expect low heating and electricity bills. In the neighbourhood, only 17% of homes for sale have an A+ label or better, so this home stands out. The exact savings depend on usage, but you'll likely spend much less on energy than in an average home.
Smilde-Centrum has a mix of households: about 525 with children and 570 without. There are two primary schools within a kilometre, and the area is described as green with walking paths. One resident says it's "a lovely green area with all amenities nearby." However, another review mentions issues like speeding cars and poor pavement maintenance, so it's worth visiting to see if it suits your family.
The nearest train station is 12.7 km away, so you'll need a car or bus for rail connections. The area is not well served by public transport for longer journeys.
The plot is 2,080 m², which is very large for a detached home. The listing does not specify a garden, but the size suggests plenty of outdoor space.
