Small but mighty

I think it's a very nice neighbourhood because everything is actually within walking distance. A shopping centre is a 5-minute walk away, Action 10 minutes, and Lidl 15. It's also very convenient that the city centre is only a 10-minute bike ride. Also, after a 5-minute bike ride you're at the education boulevard, where there are 2 Kw1C schools and a few Avans campuses together with Yuverta and Green College and another secondary school called Van Maerlant. Everything is super easy to reach. There are also many primary schools in the area, also for children who need extra support. Furthermore, it's reasonably safe. I'm not afraid to walk outside in the evening. There are also electric green charging points for your cars. You can also easily park your car here, as there is plenty of parking space.

Good enough

A lot of noise pollution, but nice and close to nature reserve De Moerputten and shopping centre De Helftheuvel, so that's nice.
