Too many bumps in the road

Drug dealers in the park. Otherwise quiet.

A pleasant neighbourhood to live in.

Everything you could wish for is around your house; you can do everything on foot if necessary. From swimming pool to supermarket. It is generally a tidy neighbourhood with little to no nuisance or trouble. Even though you are right in the city centre.

Nice neighbourhood to live in

Nice neighbourhood to live in and recently a halogen torch was organised for children. I only notice that many residents, myself included, have little time to get to know each other. I know who my direct neighbours are and that's it. Many people work and then there's little time, speaking for myself due to sports etc. Sometimes I see police here but I don't know why. And I don't want to know either. Sometimes I wonder why a van with Polish licence plates (trailer) has been parked on the street next to us for weeks. I guess there must be a reason.

Beautiful, green, cosy neighbourhood.

Great. Houses and gardens are beautiful and (with some exceptions) well-maintained. I have regular and pleasant contact with neighbours. Small shopping centre nearby and large shopping centre close by. Also the polder and swimming facilities nearby. Little litter or such on the streets. I feel safe on the streets.

This is too personal, so I prefer to keep it private.
