One resident says: "A lovely quiet neighbourhood with lots of green, with shops, schools and other amenities within short distance." Another adds: "A nice mixed neighbourhood where people look out for each other and it is quiet to live. The biggest advantage is that all amenities are close by, such as Leidsche Rijn centre, Parkwijk shopping centre, bus stop, train station, schools, sports clubs, parks, cinema and catering."
