Decent neighbourhood with lots of green and shops nearby

Since I've lived here, about 13 years, the residents have become a bit less civilised. But it's safe, little police or anything in the streets, higher average age.

Close to village, public transport and polder

Pleasant neighbourhood with few loitering youths, most people clean up their mess and the gardens are nicely maintained, as is the municipal greenery. The accessibility is especially great, you are within walking distance of the polder, the village and public transport.

Increasingly worse neighbourhood

The neighbourhood is getting worse, many families have been moving here lately who cause quite a lot of noise nuisance and are shouting all day long. In addition, most of them make little effort to keep their surroundings/front garden tidy or attractive. There are many schools in the area, so plenty of choice there. Shops are also nearby, and there is enough play space for children in the neighbourhood. Church and Zanen are becoming increasingly difficult to get to because more and more is being built and there is only one access road to enter Alphen over the railway, which also often causes a lot of traffic jams.
