My living place is ideal, I enjoy it and we live centrally. It's a cosy neighbourhood with supermarkets within walking distance, the station a 5-minute bike ride away, and there's plenty of greenery. (Even in the city centre) However, my downstairs neighbour is fierce and unfriendly, people don't quickly help each other, and it's scary to walk the streets at night as a woman.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe houses are really ugly, everything is expensive. No students. All possible amenities in the neighbourhood. King's Day is always way too busy. Very little greenery, and there are often bits of plastic and stuff lying in the street. There might be a neighbourhood get-together but only 8 people go.
Auto-translated to English by AISo far, the people who live here are quite to themselves; I don't hear much from the neighbours or hardly see them. During the day it's nice in the city, and despite the noise sometimes, I find sleeping easy too. In the evening, I find the neighbourhood a bit scary to walk through, sometimes some odd characters and there are some deals I've seen, but I don't get involved, I just live safely so far! Green in the city is almost nowhere to be seen, maybe more maintenance for plants or trees?
Auto-translated to English by AINieuwe Park Oost is a cosy neighbourhood, and you definitely notice that at the annual neighbourhood barbecue. But sometimes there is noise nuisance in the evenings or when there is an event in the city centre. In the summer this is worse due to several groups of loitering youths playing music and shouting in various places in the park.
