Nice location, city within walking distance, the neighbourhood itself is easily accessible by bike, public transport and car. Many social people from various groups live here and they all get along well. I like that different cultures, religions (church and mosque) and ages live together. Neptunusplein shopping centre is a nice shopping centre with a wide range, but it's always busy and getting there by car and parking can be difficult due to the crowds. Kruiskamp has a somewhat negative image but that really seems to be improving. Especially in the part where I live, a lot has been built and the old, dilapidated houses have been demolished. The Alliantie has now built Parkweelde there, where I also live. Nice houses, a very diverse group of people living there. Never any nuisance. What could be better is more greenery in the neighbourhood. There is some, but especially after building and demolishing, greenery seems to have disappeared. They have created a nice little park, but it still needs to grow. Unfortunately, there is almost no open view anywhere in the whole neighbourhood, so you often look at houses and it feels a bit cramped and enclosed. Furthermore, cars drive very fast and also against the direction. There is often rubbish next to the bins. I do see that ROVA, for example, handles that very well. Those employees are also coincidentally super friendly and sometimes offer to take rubbish away themselves (during jobs there was sometimes temporary rubbish/construction waste in the gardens). I also see that gardeners take good care of the hedges at the Alliantie's gardens, so it looks tidy. I'm curious how the park will turn out. Furthermore, I think the architectural style is beautiful (warm) with red and white. Also nice: many different shops, also from various cultures. Turkish bakeries, Polish supermarket, etc. I feel quite safe here, although I know that there are regular burglaries (for example, a table was stolen from the neighbour's garden). There were also many burglaries on van Nesstraat. On Magelhaenstraat, there are often cars with men inside revving the engine in the evening. Not really scary, but unsettling when you have your door open in summer. I know that also happens in other streets. People also drive very fast here. I would generally not recommend the neighbourhood for young families, but for singles, young couples or couples without children it's nice!
