Rustige buurt met een mooie mix aan bewoners

Lidl en winkelgalerij Kennedylaan is 5 minuten fietsen, de kinderboerderij op loopafstand. Veel wandelpaden die langs het Molenbeekpad lopen. Er gaat een fietspad richting Nispen wat zich ook goed leent om op hard te lopen.

Quite bad

Because there is no place for children to play with friends outside and you have to travel far to the city

Although there is more and more litter, the fellow humans here are quite active in cleaning it up, so it's usually gone quickly again. And despite the me-me-me culture that is spreading like an oil slick across the whole world, I still notice that there are enough people here who have an eye and a helping hand for their (elderly) neighbours. That makes this, despite minor annoyances, a nice neighbourhood to live in.
