Our neighbourhood is worth its weight in gold

Personally, I live in a lovely neighbourhood. Nice neighbours, especially my dear immediate neighbours, an enormous amount of greenery and the first forest 200 metres away. Always well maintained (the greenery too). Parking is easy. I love my neighbourhood

This neighbourhood is okay

My experiences with this neighbourhood are: It is a fairly quiet neighbourhood. People don't drop by unannounced. On the other hand, we are there for each other. That's the best part! When there's a party, we give proper notice. Personally, I think young people should be allowed to stay young, with e.g. an occasional party with blaring music, that's just part of our youth. The Rijdende Rechter hasn't been necessary here yet. Hopefully it stays that way.
