It is a cozy green neighbourhood around Havelte
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with diverse ages. Good atmosphere, quiet, next to nature. Really nice to live
Auto-translated to English by AIA lovely little village to live in, everyone knows everyone culture. School, shops and swimming pool within walking distance.
Auto-translated to English by AILiving is pleasant, because of the space. The only thing I find annoying/negative is how incredibly fast cars drive here. There are also blind corners, it's sometimes scary to walk or cycle here.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's very cosy here and everyone is welcoming
Auto-translated to English by AIPetty working-class neighbourhood, full of gossip and intrigue. Bullying culture. Excluding those who think differently. If you're an outsider, not 'working-class' enough, if your social position is very low, you're a target. Harsh, somewhat hateful culture. Two groups: the golf club elite and the Boer and Burger supporters. I belong to neither and therefore find no connection. I find the alcohol consumption and the frequent violence striking. Things that are overlooked. Their own customs, own rules, own laws. A self-contained community cut off from the rest of the country. They only respect rules if they can use them to muzzle people they don't like. And those rules never apply to them. A very strange culture. After 11 years, I still marvel at it every day. The municipality only stands up for its own kind. Very authoritarian, biased and corrupt. Corrupt: cronyism and conflicts of interest. Building one-sided dossiers against people they don't like. As for nature: everything is being demolished, for the past 10 years. The forests have been thinned out, stripped for financial gain. Facilities: without a car you're far from everything and the bus sometimes doesn't run at all. So you stand at the bus stop for an hour waiting for the next one. I sometimes think of Pommetje Horlepiep here.
