Slum of Bussum South

Attempt at a cultural society will only work when the old generation of Bussumers lives in a retirement home. Many are racist and not open to change.

Very good

Everything you need is in the neighbourhood. Barber, supermarket, school and more. I've lived here for years and have never been disappointed. I recommend this neighbourhood to everyone. Friendly people, lots of nature, plenty of living space and many restaurants.
