Russische buurt
Based on two reviews, residents paint a mixed picture. One says: "This neighbourhood is deteriorating; people are increasingly less willing to keep their own street clean. And from the municipality you can expect absolutely nothing." Another describes it as "not really safe in the neighbourhood in the evenings" and notes that after the market, it often takes a day to clean up. The area is densely built (3,467 addresses per km²) and home to many single-person households. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Russische buurt.
Life on the street
For daily groceries, Albert Heijn and Ekoplaza are just around the corner, with AH to go also nearby. The nearest primary school, Openbare Basisschool De Dijk, is a five-minute walk away, while Openbare Basisschool Et Buut and Daltonschool De Westerkim are a couple of streets further. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and the city centre of Zaandam is within easy reach. For more on the wider area, see the municipality Zaanstad.
