Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood has very fast-moving cars, there is no sense of community, and windows have been shot out several times. But it is in the heart of Groningen. And the buildings themselves, although there is a lot of earthquake damage, are beautiful.

Auto-translated to English by AIVery beautiful neighbourhood in Groningen. Lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops. What is unpleasant is that there is often rubbish next to the bins. Furthermore, the neighbourhood has many nice small parks and you are within no time in a quiet natural environment where you can enjoy walking, running, cycling etc. All in all, this neighbourhood is perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers.
