A cosy working-class neighbourhood where I live with great pleasure
Auto-translated to English by AIA nice neighbourhood where everyone, whether you have a disability or not, is welcome.
Auto-translated to English by AILived in the Wielewaal for 67 years. The old village feel is gone. The new buildings are nice though, and it's still a green neighbourhood. Safety is a bit of an issue. At the sports hall, there's always a gathering of shady characters. We don't have schools or shops in the Wielewaal.
Auto-translated to English by AIDue to construction and demolition, a muddy mess. Also a lot of trouble with loitering youth at the sports hall. Outdoor space near the flat is neglected. Schools are not in the Wielewaal but a few minutes by bike is sufficient. Hygiene is okay. Sense of community is there, partly due to the Wielewaal Huis.
Auto-translated to English by AICurrently a construction site. Lots of new builds. 2 fantastic 55+ flats. A pity is the hangout spot by the sports hall where dealing takes place. Squatters also cause nuisance. Unfortunately, little police presence in the neighbourhood.
