A lot of nuisance because owner-occupied and social rented homes are mixed in the neighbourhood. High unemployment, low-skilled people, subletting, noise pollution, loud music, shouting, firework nuisance, and drug nuisance from young people driving around in expensive cars at the strangest times, and dealing youngsters on fatbikes. In addition, all roads and pavements in the neighbourhood are rotten or sunken, and many houses look neglected or completely rotten on the outside.

These are mainly young boys with a cultural background who think the whole neighbourhood belongs to them and that they can make quick money this way. Additionally, the roads, paving, and lighting are very poor. And I see an increase in my area of a group of young people who are at risk of sliding into criminality. They drive back and forth in the neighbourhoods on fatbikes that they could not possibly have obtained honestly. Also, a lot of waste and litter in the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIDe Zoom is a very pleasant neighbourhood to live in. Large houses, lots of greenery, forest nearby, social and almost village-like atmosphere. Only a bit far from supermarkets, shops, the centre and the station, and downright poor bus connections.

They say they'll deal with mould and an open socket, and in the meantime you get a €10 gift card from Praxis to fix it yourself, so not really solved at all. I was born here and noticed that Lelystad is slowly deteriorating. And it's no longer really for the 21+.
