I've been living in this neighbourhood for 2 years now and what I appreciate most is that it's very lively around here. I like that much more than I expected. It has also made me think about moving to a bigger city in the (distant) future to have even more life around me. It's a very nice neighbourhood where I live and the people in the area are friendly and greet you on the street. It's a clean neighbourhood because I never see any rubbish lying around. Green spaces could be a bit better but it's reasonable. The neighbourhood is easy to reach, only the street in front of my building is a one-way street and that's a bit of a downside. Because if I need to go the other way, I have to take a detour first and that's a shame. Other than that, a top location and I'm extremely happy that I found a home here. I also didn't know that Harderwijk was such a lively city before I came to live here, but in the summer months I always hear music and fun coming from the city. GREAT!
