City centre

It's nice to live in the centre. Close to everything you need. Only often rubbish on the ground. Otherwise, it's all well organised with how the rubbish is collected and such. Could do more about the homeless people, who are quite numerous, sometimes causing a bit of nuisance because they are always begging in the centre. Especially around Molenpoort it's bad. Could do with more intervention as far as I'm concerned. Not nice if you can't walk without being asked for change. You do see police and enforcement quite often in the neighbourhood, but it could be a bit more. Education is not really in the neighbourhood. It's very accessible by public transport, cycling is sometimes a bit difficult since everyone walks on the street in the centre, also outside pedestrian areas (Molenstraat and Zierikstraat). A minor irritation sometimes.

I live in a student house with 8 nice housemates, a reasonably decent house but plagued by mice. Albert Heijn around the corner. But many homeless people there. Also, my bike was vandalised once. Otherwise, plenty of amenities and nice but small parks.
