How residents experience their district
The neighbourhood is a backstreet and working-class area and ordinary people, gossip and backbiting are part of it; if they have nothing to tell / know about you, they'll make it up. Unreliable too, they say one thing to you and to someone else they say the opposite. If they're from the church, you have two types: one type you can 100% rely on and trust, the other type puts on a nice face and tries to pull the wool over your eyes, and they've had neighbours and friends write positive reviews on Google and co. You're on your own here, and only when they can profit from you are they sweet and kind.

How residents experience their municipality
A quiet neighbourhood with an active neighbourhood association. Mainly elderly residents and families.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful neighbourhood, quiet but with super friendly people, really gives you that village feel. Sometimes a bit remote and quite a drive to the motorway, though all essentials are nearby. Beautiful along the Maas for lovely boating.
