We've been living here for quite a while since 2003, the neighbourhood is being flattened

Auto-translated to English by AIVelp Noord is a nice neighbourhood to grow up in. It's quiet, yet everything is close by. The playground is always busy with children, and the park is perfect for a bike ride or to hang out with friends. There are many green spaces, so it's nice for walking, especially in the summer. The people are generally friendly, though you don't know everyone. What I really like is that you can easily get to the city, but it's not too busy. You do notice that more and more new houses are being built, which changes the atmosphere a bit, but I think it's a good change.
Auto-translated to English by AIEver since I moved here, everything is right at hand. The people are nice, facilities are top-notch! And since I'm a student, having 4 supermarkets within cycling distance is ideal for bargain hunting! I'm completely satisfied and definitely don't want to go back home.
Auto-translated to English by AII think Velp is fine. Also to live in. But not much nature. You would have to cycle to Rheden for real forest. Clean in that respect. And safety is there too.
