Quiet

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.

Zeelst, you won't want to leave

Nice, 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

accessible and close by

I appreciate how accessible everything is in my neighbourhood, but I do think it's a bit outdated; many shops are closing and no (for me) interesting shops are replacing them.

Pleasant living

It's wonderful living here. Everything is well organised, but the only problem is the cyclists and loitering youths in the centre.

Veldhoven is a fine neighbourhood, but there are certain areas like 5501 that could use some maintenance

Safe, fairly clean, nice. In terms of education, the Sondervick is not a good school… but that is really the school's fault/problem, they have bad teachers, poor guidance,

I think this neighbourhood is fine

I've been living here for a few years and don't have much to complain about. Shops are very close by, schools are nearby too. There's plenty in the neighbourhood.
