Level of nearby neighbours is extremely low.

Residents are generally too lazy to walk to their car. Even when there are more than enough parking spaces available, they still unnecessarily park on the street just to be as close to home as possible, without considering safety or other residents who want to load or unload something. Nearby neighbours act as if they live alone. They have caused extreme noise nuisance for years. Confronting them is useless. According to them, they are doing nothing wrong.

Very satisfied

It's a neighbourhood where I've lived for a very long time, with a beautiful view on the edge of the city.

Friendly atmosphere in the neighbourhood

My experience is positive, I've lived here my whole life. The people are sociable and all basic amenities are available. There's a nice sports club where I enjoy playing football every week. I live nicely by the water and we have a beautiful view. Only the bus connection and other public transport could have been a bit better.

a calm but beautiful place

In Andijk, people are out on the streets every day, friendly neighbours and people walking around always give you a friendly greeting, and you can buy homegrown vegetables or flowers cheaply throughout the village. The nature along the dike is very beautiful and it is the longest village in the Netherlands.

Nice and beautiful place to live

We are very much to ourselves and have little contact with neighbours, mainly because we live between two neighbourhoods. The contrast between these two neighbourhoods and the people who live here is very large. On one side there are social housing units and on the other side owner-occupied homes. We live right in between. I gave a low rating for community because the people here interact very much in cliques, making it difficult to make contact with other neighbours. Because we are very much to ourselves, we don't experience any trouble or problems with this, but I can imagine that for some people this might sometimes be a bit lonely.
