Not really safe

This neighbourhood has many people with knives on fatbikes and is really not safe. The houses could be renovated.

It's a nice neighbourhood, but there are many older people living here, which is a shame for the youth. There are no loitering youths, so that's very nice. The people are friendly and allow a lot. There is less nature; I would like to see more nature in my area. Thank you in advance for your time. Kind regards, Bas van Dinther
