No sense of community, little contact, also some loitering youths, a lot of litter in the area.. I often clean up rubbish but the next day it's all over the ground again.. experienced a burglary at the neighbours' in broad daylight.. that does create a feeling of insecurity.. In addition, I sometimes have trouble with men following me.. and fireworks are set off all year round, also randomly at 3am.. There are 2 nice playgrounds in the neighbourhood but I often don't find them safe for children because there is too much litter.. think lots of cigarette butts and glass and many other things.. but it's nice that the facility is there
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a fine neighbourhood, except that I sometimes feel unsafe when I cycle late in the evening. Other than that, I never really have trouble with people. The neighbourhood could be a bit greener in my opinion, but well, it's mostly flats and they're not that pretty.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn the neighbourhood you have many amenities within walking distance, a shopping centre with many types of shops and several supermarkets. Unfortunately, there is nuisance in the neighbourhood and mainly in my building from loitering youths, fatbikers and junkies. I have encountered people on the stairs several times who were using drugs (crack). The fire escape is full of (stolen) stuff and other rubbish. Many packages are stolen in the building. The neighbourhood sometimes experiences nuisance from students (of which I am a part, not the nuisance).
