Suriname needs trees next to the benches to provide shade in summer. Many cars park around the square and at the entrance of Kieskoel flat, which makes the space in the street and at the flat entrance very small. There are too many parking spaces available near the square where cars can park safely without obstructing the street. Dog owners let their dogs poop and don't clean up, and children play here. A fine should be introduced so that all dog owners will clean up and children can find a safe and healthy playground.

Auto-translated to English by AII came to live here 17 years ago, but I haven't been able to connect because I'm an outsider and I find that very upsetting, which makes me very lonely here. Grandkids went to school here. Everything I've mentioned here could do with a change.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is, in a word, great. Shops, town hall and medical centre are within walking distance, the rent is very reasonable and the people are all friendly.
Auto-translated to English by AIOud Nieuwehagen is a beautiful neighbourhood to live in. The people (neighbours) here still do things for each other. Here we look out for one another and if something is up, we are there for each other. This is a neighbourhood where many families with young children live. There are also plenty of primary schools and secondary schools. The shops are accessible for young and old alike. Personally, I find it a very pleasant neighbourhood and I'm glad I live here.
Auto-translated to English by AIA very nice neighbourhood where people are there for each other when something is up. We don't visit each other every day, but we know how to find each other when something happens, and then we're there for one another. That's a given for us, without any obligations. Also for the children and the elderly, a very nice neighbourhood.
