There's a relaxed atmosphere here in the neighbourhood. Everyone gets along well. Unfortunately, we do regularly have trouble with loitering youths, especially in the evenings. This gives a rather unsafe feeling, as I've also heard stories of street robberies. We would therefore like to see more police presence, as there is hardly any here. There are many schools in the area, so that's fine. There are also plenty of supermarkets, as well as snack bars and cinemas, for example. The city centre is also close by. It's reasonably clean here, but it could be better. The neighbourhood is easily accessible by car, bike, and on foot.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's great to have the park nearby. There are several supermarkets and shopping centres to choose from. The city is also very easy to reach. I just think it's difficult to get to Emiclaer by car.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood Het Gein is a positive but also a flexible neighbourhood. We have both a train station and a bus station nearby. Amersfoort Schothorst. The cycle paths are fine, set apart from the road. They are open streets, which provides a lot of overview and thus remains public.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for 12 years and it's truly a beautiful neighbourhood! However, we regularly have trouble with young people hanging around the school playground. We also see very little police, which is a real shame. Our street is very cosy, but unfortunately it's not like we regularly visit each other for coffee or anything, I'd like to see more of that. The neighbourhood is easily accessible by both public transport and car. There are more than enough amenities in the area, such as supermarkets, sports clubs, playgrounds, schools, etc. As mentioned, there are many schools, both primary, secondary and higher education. Education here is actually very good. All in all, it's a very nice, well-equipped and sociable neighbourhood, but we would really appreciate seeing more police.
