My neighbourhood is nice. There are kind people around you and you have people from young to old. There are shops nearby that I can quickly get to as a student, and homes that aren't too expensive.

Nice neighbourhood

Great neighbourhood to live in. Very green. Close to forests. Quiet. And within five minutes in the city or Groesbeek.

Student-like

I have a good experience with my neighbourhood. Everything is within walking or cycling distance. Lots of students and young families, very nice. It's always lively, but not (too) busy. Just a relaxed atmosphere. Sometimes it feels a bit unsafe in the evening, I think that's because of the homeless people who then move out of the city centre. I find that less pleasant.

There is a nasty woman who would interrupt you easily because she is obsessive and wants everything to be in accordance with her interests and favourite.
