Life in Heijplaat
Heijplaat is a small community of about 1,945 residents, and it has its own character shaped by the shipyard that once defined the area. Residents of the district of Charlois, which includes Heijplaat, give their living environment an average score of 6.93, based on 35 reviews. One resident says: "The neighbourhood is improving more and more each year. Thanks to the rent law, there are fewer slumlords and more and more families. It sometimes still has a bad reputation, but that is undeserved except for a few streets. The location is fantastic, metro, Zuidplein, city centre a quarter of an hour by bike. Zuiderpark is also around the corner and soon the Nelson Mandela park." Another resident is less positive: "The facilities and the apartment itself are nice. But around the building there is a lot of rubbish on the street and junkies." A third simply calls it "Quiet" and "Normal". These reviews reflect the wider district rather than this specific street, so they give a general impression of the area.
