Apart from the fact that I have unpleasant neighbours on both sides and that one of them (a couple) causes a lot of nuisance, when they are quiet it is lovely to live in such a senior home. The house is very dilapidated and has quite a few defects. The housing association does nothing about it.

Auto-translated to English by AINice, after my divorce in 2015, I was well taken care of, because Zeelst has many cafés, I know some owners and they kept an eye out for living space. Eventually through them I got a converted office. They kept an eye on me, neighbours are pleasant... eventually through urgency I got a home, again in this neighbourhood... I live here very pleasantly and feel quite safe. Strips of green are well maintained and I'm close to a park
Auto-translated to English by AII appreciate how accessible everything is in my neighbourhood, but I do think it's a bit outdated; many shops are closing and no (for me) interesting shops are replacing them.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's wonderful living here. Everything is well organised, but the only problem is the cyclists and loitering youths in the centre.
