How residents experience their district
It's right in the centre of Leiden, between the 3 associations. There's not only daytime bustle from tourists but also in the evening from all the students walking through the neighbourhood. Personally, I find it very cosy and not disturbing. Furthermore, there are plenty of nice little restaurants and a supermarket nearby. You live close to the water and the Hortus, so there's plenty to do. Unfortunately, getting into this neighbourhood by car is a bit of a course because you're not allowed everywhere and sometimes you have to take huge detours. In my opinion, there isn't enough greenery in the neighbourhood; we do have a park, but more trees could be planted in the streets and surroundings. Most of the greenery is often from the people who live there, not from the municipality. Otherwise, I'd say the housing situation is fine. There are some association houses, owner-occupied houses, and plenty of rental properties.

How residents experience their municipality
Living here is fantastic. Beautiful, spacious and affordable apartment with 90m2 floor area. Indoor route to the supermarket. GP and the usual shops like Etos, Kruidvat, Bruna, Hema on the nearby square. Bus lines and main roads within 5 minutes. Also enough schools at every level. In short, "a place to be".

Auto-translated to English by AICosy flat with many elderly residents. A nice dog walking area that I look out onto. Also a beautiful park. However, too few shops, so little choice unfortunately. Only the park is not lit and there are regularly homeless people who also sleep in the bushes! The park is well maintained though. In short, I am very satisfied with the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a rather detached part of Leiden, with a strange mix of student complexes and houses. A lot of noise nuisance.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy, everyone chats with each other on the street. We are kept well informed about what is happening in the neighbourhood via a newsletter. And then an information evening is held. In the playground, the neighbourhood police officer could patrol the area more often.
Auto-translated to English by AIThey keep an eye on each other. Everyone has a chat every now and then. More and more young families with children are moving in, so there's a bit more going on. Children playing, nice for the elderly who no longer work but are at home or alone.
