Cosy neighbourhood, almost everyone knows each other, fairly quiet.

Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbours. Cosy atmosphere of the area
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience with the neighbourhood is good, but I miss a water supply such as a public tap and the schools in this neighbourhood are not so good; those just outside the neighbourhood are better. What is good is the wooded surroundings.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is very nice, not many strange things happen. Very accessible and connection to public transport around the corner. Primary school is in the area and there are secondary schools within cycling distance. There is a shopping centre within cycling/walking distance. Many sports facilities and restaurants.
Auto-translated to English by AIGood neighbourhood, with many amenities. Good schools and a nice shopping centre nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is deteriorating significantly in terms of crime and safety. They are now renovating the neighbourhood, which may take a while, but where they are working there is of course some nuisance, but afterwards it can only become more beautiful and pleasant. Bos Landgoed Oosterheide and Floraliapark are nearby, where you can enjoy walking and many activities are organised for young and old! "De Bunthoef" now on the Beneluxweg, a centre where a lot is organised, but where you can also go for serious matters, which I find very pleasant in this area. The hygiene in and around the houses could be better. Which is also partly due to the residents themselves. Better control. Perhaps more frequent rubbish collection instead of once a month, twice... Bulky waste collection again at fixed times, so that people without transport or much money can still dispose of their waste. So that it doesn't remain everywhere in the neighbourhood, where rats and other vermin take over. Currently, people have been on a waiting list for a house for years but get nothing, while those houses are rented out to "refugees"; that should be looked into more carefully. I am not against genuine refugees who are not safe in their own country, but many are men and leave their families behind in that "unsafe" country. Perhaps it's time to sort out what and who really have a right to a house. Better flow-through... e.g. people in a large house where only one person lives should move to a smaller house.
