It varies. It's usually a nice neighbourhood with nice people. You say hello to each other when you walk or cycle past. But it can sometimes be a bit unsafe in some places. Around the Trefplein is the hangout spot for the young people in the neighbourhood. You don't want to cycle past there alone in the evening. They also leave rubbish behind, which is a real shame. There is also a community centre that, in my opinion, could do with a bit more attention. This could be done, for example, through posters, flyers or something similar.
