It used to be much greener, but unfortunately everything is being built up and recently construction has started on the football field and grass field (apartment-like houses), which makes the neighbourhood less pleasant and it's getting busier. Otherwise, nice houses and a fine district! Good public transport connections, but unfortunately the 143 no longer runs. Good education in the area for secondary and primary schools, plenty of choice. Not a lot of contact with others, but nice neighbours and people always say hello. It's clean, but there should be specific dog waste bins with bags provided. It's a safe neighbourhood (social housing will be available soon, so I don't know how that will be in the future). And the Vlietplein, as well as Ridderkerk centre, is very close. So plenty of shopping options. Also a supermarket within walking distance. There's also a gym very close by, which is really great!
