Cars are increasingly double-parked. Ambulance or fire brigade can't reach us at the back of the street. Dustbins sometimes aren't emptied. Lots of litter on the street. Many labour migrants. Right next to us, 5 Poles. Enforcement says they know they're not allowed to live there but they can't just put them on the street. But we mainly suffer a lot of nuisance from these guys in summer. We can't buy another house ourselves, otherwise we'd have left already!
Auto-translated to English by AIOverall, Bastion is a relatively pleasant neighbourhood. There are many amenities nearby, including many educational institutions and opportunities for the younger generation. There is also a nice shopping centre where all necessities can be found. However, the houses themselves are certainly not winning any beauty prizes, and there is also a lot of litter on the streets. Some parts of the neighbourhood are not well maintained, even though this is known to the government. Safety is fine, but could certainly be improved with more lighting and accessibility. Fortunately, public transport stops nearby, and the neighbourhood is easy to find for visitors. Overall, Bastion is a neighbourhood that is not yet optimal, but certainly has potential.
Auto-translated to English by AII did grow up with the people here, I know quite a lot of them, but over time everyone has changed, so people don't really talk to each other anymore, but it's still a very cool neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are many different kinds of people in this neighbourhood from different cultures. That makes it nice on the one hand. But you also have young people here who act tough towards people older than them and they say yeah we'll stop but in the end it keeps going no matter what you do. There's also not much for young people to do in this neighbourhood; there should be more so that the young people have something to do in the Zuiderzeewijk in Lelystad. There's a park area here at the back and it's very nice to take a walk there. The cars drive too fast and I think enforcement should check more often in this neighbourhood or that the neighbourhood police officer should patrol more. And the maintenance of the houses could also be better. And there's often rubbish on the street and that should be reduced or should stop altogether.
