A diverse neighbourhood

It's a neighbourhood where many diverse people live, often it's very cosy but there can also be a lot of hassle among each other at certain times. A bit more consideration could be given to plants and flowers and grass fields.

Cosy neighbourhood.

A few years ago there was a stabbing in my street, which did leave an impression. Fortunately, all the neighbours are very friendly and you never have any trouble with them. I also think the education in the neighbourhood is quite poor, but there are a few very good schools that are not much further than the schools in this neighbourhood. Furthermore, there are many trees in the neighbourhood, which makes everything a bit cosier and is also more pleasant for the eye. A 200-metre walk brings you to a small shopping centre with everything you need: a pharmacy, a supermarket, a chemist, a baker, a butcher, a post office and a few more cosy little shops for products you don't easily find in the supermarket. In short: an ideal neighbourhood.

Quiet but distant

A lot has been renovated and it's now an excellent neighbourhood, although there is little police presence so there are dealers regularly, but they don't necessarily cause trouble. Poor contact with the neighbours, but they all seem like sourpusses to me so I don't know if that's a minus or a plus. There is a lot of greenery in the neighbourhood and the canal is nearby. The city centre is about 100 metres away and there are some shops in the neighbourhood itself. Accessibility and traffic safety are fine in most respects, but the schools in the area are all Christian, so for a public school I had to cycle a bit further.
