Very nice but boring

It's a very pleasant neighbourhood, but all sorts of things happen here. Fortunately, there are also nice people here who sometimes want to talk to you.

Good, but could be better: Our neighbourhood under construction

The neighbourhood has always been nice, but there is still a lot of room for improvement. There are many schools nearby, making it easy and quick for children to access education. There isn't much greenery in this neighbourhood apart from one or two small parks where not much happens anyway.

meh

Schilderswijk is not the prettiest neighbourhood, lots of rubbish and robberies, but plenty of diversity in terms of culture, and that is nice.

Is a nice and cosy neighbourhood. You see many people coming together to eat or have a conversation with each other. Everything is well organised, many things are within reach and I think this place is great.
