Quiet and caring neighbourhood.

Residents of Marle are proud of their neighbourhood. They put their shoulders to the wheel to strengthen the community together. A thorn in the side is the shortage of affordable homes for starters and lifetime homes. Housing construction, public transport and more public lighting would help the neighbourhood to keep young people on board. This has a positive effect on the school and the extensive club life that Marle has. What a pity is that the differences from the land consolidation are still clearly visible, part of Marle still has old ash trees and winding roads and the other part is more rigid and clearly has fewer ash trees and green verges.

The street is restless and busy, but otherwise it's a nice, tidy neighbourhood. I know many people and if something is up, we can always ask or inform each other without constantly knocking on doors. However, little is organised.
