Lots of nature

In my neighbourhood there is a lot of nature. There is a road near my house, but you can't see it because there is a large strip of land with tall trees in between. This also blocks the noise. I have nice neighbours and a cosy neighbourhood. I am very satisfied.

Lots of green, and a child-friendly residential area. Easy bus connection to the centre of Purmerend. Safe cycle paths.

Neighbourhood going downhill

Many loitering youths, parking nuisance from city visitors. Too few parking spaces for residents. A lot of street racing.
