Nice to live in.
Auto-translated to English by AIA cosy and friendly neighbourhood, I always feel safe both at night and during the day. A nice neighbourhood for starting families. The centre of Groningen is not too far away..
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living in this neighbourhood for 7 months. It's very quiet, green and nice. I have nice neighbours. I think it's a very nice neighbourhood with easy access to the city centre. It has nearby supermarkets. A downside of the neighbourhood is that bus number 6 sometimes doesn't run or is late, and this has caused me problems a few times. It would be good if the bus timetable doesn't change and if it is cancelled, this is communicated well and early.
