Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet, neat neighbourhood. There is a lot of greenery in the area, everything is well maintained. There is a neighbourhood library, cafés, shops. There is neighbourhood watch, which keeps watch a few times a month. There are plenty of activities in the area (Wateringen) for young and old, also free activities. There are buses with stops in the village, as well as trams 17 and 16 within walking distance. Streets are clean, park is also regularly cleaned. There are enough schools in the area (primary education). Sometimes people complain about the morning rush around the schools, but that is also quickly resolved. I enjoy living here!
