Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a lovely neighbourhood to live in and fun to grow up in, but the connection to other places is very poor and there's little for young people to do to develop themselves.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe people in the neighbourhood are all very kind and polite, and nothing unpleasant ever happens. Waste is properly separated and cleaned up, and there is quite a lot of greenery. However, I would like to see more variety in plants for biodiversity.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn front of our house it's beautifully green. Sometimes you see turtles ? or hedgehogs ? walking in front of our house. In terms of green/nature, living in De Kwakel is fantastic.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived there for a year and I generally think Meerwijk is beautiful! I feel comfortable with all my neighbours and a few students from the KKC who live here. Everyone is kind and welcoming to me.
