Nice lively neighbourhood

There's the occasional stabbing here and there, but otherwise has everything you need. Lots of nice people and shops. Enjoy living here. Can be noisy at night though.

Cosy

Nice neighbourhood and almost everything within walking distance. The only pity is that there is little to no greenery in the street/neighbourhood.

Well-connected location

A nice location in terms of all amenities. The station is nearby and within a few minutes' walk you are also at one of the markets or the Herestraat (centre). However, this is also where the red light district (my neighbourhood) is located, where there is a bit more crime. This is managed with preventive measures and police that are quick on their feet. Other than that, there are also beautiful old houses in this neighbourhood and I have a pleasant street in terms of neighbours.

Quiet neighbourhood

The Praediniussingel in Groningen is a beautiful and quiet street with lots of greenery and beautiful architecture. It is a perfect place, you have all the necessary amenities thanks to the nearby Westerhaven. Even though it is close to the city, you don't experience the hustle and bustle of the city. The area is safe and clean, and there are several nice parks and shops in the neighbourhood.
