Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood to live in, people are very much to themselves. Few playgrounds that look decent for small children. Very good schools though. An Albert Heijn and a snack bar and the centre a 20-minute walk away... Bus facilities I personally don't find very convenient.
