Bredevoort is a beautiful and pleasant neighbourhood for families and for anyone looking for peace and safety. The streets are clean and the people in the neighbourhood are generally quiet; some residents are open and friendly, while others are more reserved, but that's not a problem. I have lived in my home for nine years, and unfortunately, a lot of cold air still comes in from under the floor. This means we have to use the heating more often. Otherwise, living here is pleasant and the neighbourhood feels comfortable and safe.
Auto-translated to English by AIGenerally a nice and cosy neighbourhood. A mix of younger families and older people. Quiet, and if something happens you see everyone come to look right away ;). There is some green, but I think there could be more. More trees, that also provide shade for e.g. parking.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn our short time (due to moving) it's been okay so far. Based on what we've experienced so far. With everyone in the neighbourhood. We still have to discover the rest.

Auto-translated to English by AIOur neighbourhood is a mix of streets with rental and owner-occupied homes. With plenty of green spaces. We really enjoy living here in our own home, on a nice street, although I must note that the streets with social housing are changing somewhat; nowadays many people from outside the village come to live there, which unfortunately does not exactly increase the feeling of safety. Still, I think that compared to many other neighbourhoods in the Netherlands, we live here quietly and relatively safely, with most amenities within reasonable distance.
