Auto-translated to English by AII live in an apartment complex on the edge of Staatsliedenkwartier where I easily make contact with neighbours. With the dog I'm in Brediusbos in 10 minutes, shops are 5 and 15 minutes away (one supermarket 5 minutes away and 15 minutes from shopping centre Snel en Polanen and 15 minutes to the centre of Woerden). Housing is very mixed, from young families to homes for the elderly. Accessibility is fine, station 10 minutes away and plenty of cycle paths and roads.
