Cosy and warm neighbourhood

I've been living in this neighbourhood for 5 years, and I've felt at home here since day 1 when we moved here! It's a cosy neighbourhood with lots of dogs, cats and families with young children! There are plenty of grass patches where I can walk my dog. Close to the metro and Alexandrium. So it's very accessible! I think it's a really nice neighbourhood!!!

Cosy, but could be better

I haven't lived here very long, but the type of housing isn't that great. Otherwise, it's quite a green neighbourhood with the Kralingse Plas nearby and lots of trees.

Cosy

My neighbourhood can be cosy but can also be very unsafe. There are 3 schools in the area, 2 primary schools, 1 secondary school, but there are plenty of shops.

Lovely place to live

When I came to live here, I was immediately happy with everything and everyone around me. It is deteriorating, by which I mean that people have moved in who don't follow the rules, like placing rubbish next to the container, which attracts vermin that tear open the bags. People throwing their rubbish from the balcony into the bushes. Otherwise, friendly people and everything in the neighbourhood. It's a shame that Alexandrium has a lot of vacant units. Hope that will change.
