Friendly, good neighbourhood

I think Molenhoek is a good, nice, beautiful and friendly neighbourhood. The atmosphere is very pleasant and people are open to each other. What I personally find very important is that as a transgender person I really feel welcome and accepted here. The people are friendly and respectful, and that contributes enormously to the feeling of safety and coming home. The neighbourhood is tidy, green and quiet, with nice walking and cycling routes in the area. All in all, I am very happy to live here!
