Den Bosch is nicer...

Nothing else is worth it. As soon as I step outside the neighbourhood I feel disgusted. Nicest stadium and least filthy community centre in the Netherlands. Would also have a nice view of IJzeren Vrouw if that bloody road hadn't split the bloody park in two, what a bloody mess, bloody 60s... Furthermore, glad I'm from the north and not the south. Those lazy bastards in Graafsebuurt south wanted to keep slavery, what a bunch of empathy-less scum. #AllMokrosMustAlsoWork

Time for a new beginning

It used to be fun, but not anymore. Lots of junkies in the neighbourhood, a bit unsafe and just time for something new, so I'm glad the flats are being demolished and new apartment complexes are coming.

Messy little neighbourhood

Don't think the neighbourhood is clean and too many immigrants together in one area and police regularly appear, that's not for nothing

The neighbourhood was once much better

Living in this neighbourhood for over 35 years and have seen a lot of negative changes over the years. It was always a peculiar neighbourhood in many respects. But there was still something like a sense of community. But now that everyone is more to themselves and has less (good) contact with neighbours, my feeling of safety has noticeably decreased.

Visibly deteriorating

In the past the neighbourhood was cleaner and people maintained the front gardens and pavements better, also the children just throw everything on the street
