The Transvaalwijk neighbourhood
Residents of the district give it an average score of 7.48, based on six reviews. One resident, who has lived here for 25 years, says: "I have been living here pleasantly for 25 years. My children grew up here and now I have my house to myself. The neighbourhood is fine and the city centre is walkable. Green spaces and a nice large garden." Another resident describes it as "calm and quiet", adding that "everyone keeps to themselves but it's a calm and peaceful neighbourhood". A third review is more mixed: "A few years ago, the neighbourhood was a pleasant and safe environment. Now rubbish bags are thrown next to the containers, causing a lot of nuisance from seagulls. There are also loitering youths who cause a lot of trouble in the area." The neighbourhood has around 985 residents, with a high share of single-person households at 53%. The housing stock is predominantly pre-war, with all homes built before 1945. For more on the area, see [the Transvaalwijk neighbourhood].
