only a shame that the houses have a lot of mould because they are old houses, witvoetstraat and gravenstraat were built in the same year as merelstraat but only merelstraat was not rebuilt..

Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience with the neighbourhood is, very helpful, togetherness. We know each other..!!
Auto-translated to English by AIA nice neighbourhood to live in. Nice and quiet, public transport within walking distance, safe cycle paths, and a shopping centre a bike ride away. We live 5 minutes from a park with lots of playground equipment and walking paths. And if you like fishing, you can do that too. We have squirrels in the garden, lots of birds.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's fine living here..except for one neighbour and the municipality that does nothing about it.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a quiet working-class neighbourhood with easily accessible amenities. Shops are within walking distance and you could also walk to the city centre. In addition, it is nice that there is a medical centre with GPs, pharmacy, physiotherapy and more. Schools are also nearby and there is enough play space for children. It is pleasant to live here.
