We prefer not to go out when it's dark. Double locks on all doors, including the shed and gate. We both come from a different province in the Netherlands.
Auto-translated to English by AIAfter a certain time in the evening, I no longer go outside alone. We even have double locks on the gate, shed and aviary. Hygiene: people throw paper etc. into the bushes, empty bottles and cans. Just an ASO neighbourhood. What could be better: fewer coloured people in the neighbourhood, also benefit claimants. Make it a neighbourhood where almost everyone is equal. And where everyone feels safe again to, for example, walk their dog around 10 p.m.
Auto-translated to English by AIMore empty properties, the neighbourhood is deteriorating due to many more foreigners in the area. I no longer go out on the street after 10pm. Double locks everywhere. More street lighting and more social housing.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur street is often used as a rat run. There are dealers in the area, so there's always commotion. Opposite us, flats have been removed, there are pests like mice etc. Will the pile of rubble, now consisting of grass etc., ever be removed? Remove weeds more often, keep trees and shrubs low. The bushes along the footpath are often used as a place to pee. The insufficient rating is due to too much turnover of residents, vacant properties. People race through the street like idiots. [Improvement: make it one-way traffic] Clear the pile of rubble etc. where the flats used to be, a haven for mice and other vermin.
Auto-translated to English by AIAfter a certain time I no longer go outside, double locks etc. Could be better in the neighbourhood, keeping it clean and tidy. I live opposite a shopping centre, busy with renovations. So to a different supermarket than you're used to. A lot of young people leaving everything lying around, e.g. dog poo etc.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is going downhill very fast. Lots of foreigners together in the evening. In the evening I no longer cross the street alone. Lots of litter, people drive way too fast. Our street is used as a rat run, we have double locks everywhere. In the evening the curtains are closed and we are not there; we neighbours keep an eye on each other's houses etc. When we go on holiday, the person who feeds the cat closes the curtains and turns on the lights.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in Den Helder since my marriage, and I think the neighbourhood is going downhill fast. Lots of noise in the evenings, our street is also used as a rat run, so they don't have to use the Texelstroomlaan. There's a lot of nuisance from mopeds etc., drug-related. Not a neighbourhood where I'd let my children go out in the evening to kick a ball around. I don't go out after 9pm. Extra locks on the house, shed, gate and even the aviary. Some people can't be bothered to take their rubbish to the dump. They dump it in places where flats used to be. More bins, more maintenance of green spaces, neighbourhood watch.
