The neighbourhood is reasonably okay, there are plans for new construction in the Geesterduin 2.0 area, but our complex is not included in this renovation. The insulation of the homes, including mine, is so poor that it feels like your ceiling is a thin garden fence; everything that moves above crashes loudly into the bedroom below. Neighbours also suffer severely from mould due to the poor insulation. In terms of safety, the complex is easy to access for burglaries and is very prone to break-ins. The police are often quick to respond if needed.
