My neighbourhood is always very cosy, with children playing outside and also the annual neighbourhood barbecues. The amenities are absolutely great, we have a Kruidvat, Jumbo, florist and barber around the corner, and also varied stalls during the week, such as mabroek, Vietnamese spring rolls, cheese and a fishmonger. There is also almost never any unrest in our area, very neat and polite people. Nice playgrounds and benches along the water and also a large green park nearby. It is close to the motorway which is handy for the car and public transport is also fine. We have 3 bus lines that pass by in the area, and the nearest one is only a 5-minute walk away. Furthermore, the hygiene is great, always very clean and almost no litter. We have a GP practice in the area and a primary school.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a peaceful neighbourhood, never much nuisance and always very nice to go for a walk because there's a nice park nearby that isn't overcrowded with young people. All amenities are conveniently close, so very handy if you've forgotten to get something. Otherwise, a nice atmosphere around the area, lots of friendly people and also occasional neighbourhood barbecues which make it cosy.

Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet neighbourhood. Lots of nice people and I always feel safe. I just miss a football pitch or something. Somewhere where the youngsters can play football/basketball and so on. Supermarket nearby (Lidl) and a shopping centre within cycling distance. Beach not too far away either, and the city too. Actually just a really lovely neighbourhood!
