Every man for himself but still cosy

A simple neighbourhood but nowadays everything is being crammed into vacant houses. Families that mess up the front and back gardens. This has been reported several times but the housing association thinks it's fine and doesn't consider the neighbours. A school with a lot of traffic nuisance and dog owners who walk their dogs on a children's playground without cleaning up. There is also dealing on the school grounds in the dark evenings and it takes a while before the police or enforcement arrive.

hopeless

I've lived here for 55 years now, but it's not getting any nicer. In the beginning it was good living. I live alone now; both my parents died here. I was allowed to stay, but now I live among very different kinds of people. I would like to leave, but the housing association sets so many requirements that I'll probably end up staying.

Cosy neighbourhood

Everyone does their best in this beautiful neighbourhood, just like the shopping centre de Eglantier around the corner. I have lived in de Warenargaarde for more than 20 years and am very satisfied, peace and hope that we may have it for a long time together with our neighbours.

Bad and very unsafe neighbourhood.

I have only had bad experiences with the neighbourhood. And it is very unsafe because of drug addicts. And the municipality does nothing except point fingers at each other. The community is also nothing, we have very little greenery. Only accessible by car. And furthermore no public transport nearby and no shops in the area.
