Auto-translated to English by AII have lived in 't Spil my whole life and experience the neighbourhood as pleasant and familiar; the atmosphere with the neighbours is good, for example, a neighbourhood day is organised which many neighbours attend, bringing the neighbourhood into more contact with each other. It is also very nice that the shopping centre is within walking distance and that everything I need is nearby. The area is fairly well maintained with a vegetable garden. Sometimes there is litter on the street, but the municipality ensures it is removed as quickly as possible. The only thing that could be better is that people throw less rubbish on the street, so the municipality has time for more important things.
