Cosy and nice

Nice neighbours, good contact, safe location, beautiful square

Quiet

The neighbourhood is usually very clean, but contact among residents is somewhat limited. There is a lot of social control through a neighbourhood app where we communicate in unsafe situations or ask questions. There are few facilities for young people or nightlife spots, so all the young people just stay at home or go to Alkmaar. This could be much better.

Cosy and pleasant neighbourhood

The neighbourhood is very cosy and social. From fun neighbourhood parties to children playing outside. Albert Heijn on the corner with a dentist, GP and orthodontist. There are also many parks to walk your dog if needed. 2 primary schools and plenty of nice playgrounds.
