Going downhill fast

Many houses are being bought up by people who then rent them out again, resulting in many foreigners moving in who do no maintenance (house and garden) and do not integrate into the neighbourhood. A real shame because 10 years ago we had a very nice, tidy neighbourhood...

Deteriorated

Homes were increasingly bought up and sublet to, for example, labour migrants... these people maintain nothing around the house (gardens etc.), causing the appearance of the neighbourhood to deteriorate rapidly...

Cosy neighbourhood

The neighbourhood has the atmosphere of a working-class area. The homes are not too expensive to buy. Some residents should maintain their homes and gardens better. Sometimes messy because of this.
