The neighbourhood is not the neighbourhood anymore

I lived here for 25 years with great pleasure, but in recent years it has become very different. Previously, everyone knew each other and greeted each other. For the elderly, the front path was cleared when it snowed, errands were done, etc. If I hadn't seen someone for a while, I would go and ask how they were. And now... you hear that people lie dead in their homes for 4 weeks and no one notices. Pff, but luckily I'm not like that and I remain loyal to my neighbourhood and go and check in. But unfortunately, the sense of community is completely gone. Now new people move in and you don't even know their names. Very sad. I wish the old days could come back.

Nice neighbourhood but a lot of festivalgoers

Nice neighbourhood! Everyone gets along well. Small and also older children. Nature can be found but not much. Many festivals are held at Goffert.

Very cosy neighbourhood

Everyone knows everyone, you can easily get everywhere on foot or by bike, everything is nice and close. If you fancy fries you can go to Hassan or Anil, and you can also go to Fawaka if you have a different taste.
