I've been living in the Willemspoort since the end of 2017 and I really enjoy it. It's clean, safe, and most things are within walking distance (supermarket and restaurants). The only thing missing is a chemist, but the Helftheuvel and the city centre are easily accessible from the Willemspoort. Furthermore, there's a nature area within walking distance and the view from the apartment is fantastic. In short, a top place to live!
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a very nice neighbourhood because everything is actually within walking distance. A shopping centre is a 5-minute walk away, Action 10 minutes, and Lidl 15. It's also very convenient that the city centre is only a 10-minute bike ride. Also, after a 5-minute bike ride you're at the education boulevard, where there are 2 Kw1C schools and a few Avans campuses together with Yuverta and Green College and another secondary school called Van Maerlant. Everything is super easy to reach. There are also many primary schools in the area, also for children who need extra support. Furthermore, it's reasonably safe. I'm not afraid to walk outside in the evening. There are also electric green charging points for your cars. You can also easily park your car here, as there is plenty of parking space.
Auto-translated to English by AIYour registration focuses on the industrial area where the Brabanthallen are located, and an asphalt plant. But you forgot the residential part just south of it. While that is precisely the Veemarktkwartier. With about 200 homes, and very diverse residents. The Veemarktkwartier is part of Boschveld. But because the railway, the Grasso (GrenCo), the Oude Engelenseweg and the Paardskerkhofweg surround it, the neighbourhood always felt a bit cut off from the rest of Boschveld. There used to be a cattle market there, in the BrabantHallen, once a week.

Auto-translated to English by AIA lot of noise pollution, but nice and close to nature reserve De Moerputten and shopping centre De Helftheuvel, so that's nice.
