An interesting and fun neighbourhood, only the neighbours sometimes disappoint

I have lived here for over 9 years, and I like the neighbourhood. It could be better, of course, because there are many "smart alecks" who cut across the Generaal Spoorlaan, and who fly through the neighbourhood like a cannonball. Other than that, it's okay, and I'm satisfied here.

Cosy neighbourhood.. a bingo with nice prizes is organised every year. Easily accessible, but slightly unsafe for cyclists due to the speed of many motorists in the area.

Peaceful, especially for the elderly and green.

My neighbourhood is super safe and quiet, you could lie on the street for 15 minutes and not get run over. Good place for children to play and grow up, and a nice view of the farm (from John F. Kennedylaan). Few amenities or schools, but a large shopping centre (de Boogaard) is 5 minutes away. Nice forest nearby for walking, and big wide beautiful streets and beautiful houses.
