The neighbourhood is a safe, luxurious area where you can raise your children well.

The neighbourhood is well-maintained by both residents and the municipality. There are neighbourhood barbecues and people look out for each other. The neighbourhood is relatively new and most residents here are the first occupants of the houses, which creates a close-knit community. However, we do notice that it is somewhat difficult for newcomers to integrate.

Nice to live in

I don't have much contact with neighbours myself, but everyone is friendly and I feel safe in my neighbourhood. There are several primary schools in the area and secondary schools are not far either.

An open and cosy neighbourhood with many different types of people.

I feel safe in the neighbourhood and all amenities are within walking distance. The neighbourhood is cosy and every now and then a neighbourhood drinks party is held at someone's home. It is a very welcoming neighbourhood.

Good

Tidy and quiet neighbourhood. Unfortunately no contact with the neighbours. Plenty of daily shops nearby. Transport is a bit difficult, especially at night and in the evening and early in the morning.
