Hygiene

In terms of hygiene, the municipality does a lot of cleaning. Nevertheless, there remains a lot of rubbish and dirt on the streets.

Cosy, quiet and safe

The neighbourhood here is very pet-friendly, which is nice because I have a dog. People here are also very alert to burglaries or the like; in the seven years I've lived here, I haven't experienced a single burglary. Also, people from this neighbourhood are very kind and happy to help you.

Nice but could be better

It's a nice place to live, but the municipality does little maintenance. There's dog poop everywhere and the grass hasn't been mowed for a very long time. This makes it harder to clean up dog poop, but also for (small) children to play.
