Fine

Fine, I don't have much to do with the people around here, but there's a lot of nature. I just think it's a shame that they killed wolf Bram. Houses are just unaffordable.

Quiet and safe living

Fine. It's safe, quiet and green. It just doesn't feel very warm, but that might have more to do with the times we live in; people are more to themselves. Sometimes there is some nuisance. Children, fireworks, dog and cat poop that isn't cleaned up.

Friendly people like in a village

Pleasant neighbourhood, but busy intersection De Ekris, a lot of traffic. The driveway tyres, no consideration for disabled bicycles.

A small village with plenty of shops and restaurants.

I've lived here since I was a child, and I also went to primary school here. I work here, it's okay to live here.
