One resident says: "It's a beautiful neighbourhood, but it lacks a bit of cosiness. We never really do anything; I hardly know anyone myself. There are also very few children living here (mostly elderly people), so it also lacks that childish joy." Another notes: "I moved here 3 years ago, never had any complaints or trouble with neighbours. There are dog waste bags and bins everywhere, so it's quite clean. Nicely spacious layout, but the connection to Heerenveen is only via 2 roads, and 1 is full of bumps." The neighbourhood has a low urbanity score (4 out of 5, with 5 being least urban), and the address density is 694 per km², so it feels open and green. Neighbourhood Skoatterwald is popular with families, though the reviews suggest it is quieter.
For daily groceries, you have Albert Heijn, Ekoplaza, Jumbo and Aldi all within about 1.7 to 1.9 km, a pleasant walk or short cycle. Two primary schools are just around the corner: o.b.s.
