The Zamenhofdreef en omgeving neighbourhood
Based on two reviews, this part of Overvecht gets a mixed reception. One resident is blunt: "Overvecht is dirty, messy, noisy; sometimes it looks like a motorsport field with how they race at night. Rats run across you, it stinks outside, and there are many loitering youths, so safety is not great." Another takes a more balanced view: "This neighbourhood has a bit of a reputation as the unsafe neighbourhood of Utrecht, together with Kanaleneiland. But that's not too bad. There are many families with children and elderly people, which makes it a lot quieter." The same reviewer notes the shopping centre is within walking distance and the city centre is ten minutes by bus. Around 68% of households here are single-person, and the average household size is 1.5. The Zamenhofdreef en omgeving neighbourhood has its own character within Overvecht.
