I've been living here for three years now and I haven't experienced anything unpleasant or anything. Unfortunately, the neighbourhood is relatively far from shops, but I personally don't find it acceptable to constantly consume, so it's not a problem that shops are far away from my perspective. The neighbourhood is built on a small hill, which is why it's called the Bergkwartier. That's a disadvantage if you only have a bike, because it's quite a tough climb uphill. But 'every disadvantage has its advantage': cycling up the hill is good for your health... The neighbourhood doesn't have a neighbourhood watch. But all houses are well secured against burglary. I've never ended up in a bad situation at night. There is no loitering youth anywhere. I don't often read about burglaries in the neighbourhood, nor other crime. There is no community centre in this part of Amersfoort. There is a small restaurant here, about a hundred metres from my home. But I've never seen my neighbours there. So it's not a neighbourhood fathers' place, although it could have been. The neighbourhood consists of a mix of owner-occupied and (social) rental homes. But the majority are owner-occupied. Their condition is quite good. But people with a smaller budget also live here, and that's good because variety is good for social processes and life itself. The neighbourhood is easily accessible from other places in this city. I often walk in the forest; the forest is five hundred metres from my home, it's beautiful there, I find peace there, so I enjoy going there.
