Unconnected social neighbourhood with many activities

Quiet, no nuisance, sometimes difficult neighbours, otherwise everyone is very much to themselves but still always curious about what others are doing. In terms of nature, it is very extensive and there are many opportunities.

A cosy, lively neighbourhood where there's always something to do

I haven't had any bad experiences. During the day it's cosy with lots of people everywhere and there's plenty to do. But in the evening there are occasionally activities that aren't safe, but that rarely happens fortunately. Furthermore, friendly people, lots of greenery and lovely walking parks with supermarkets within walking distance. By bike, car or on foot you can basically reach everything you need.

Multicultural, cosy and chaotic

Nice neighbourhood to live in, all amenities nearby. Especially now with the new Spar. Unfortunately, there is a lot of rubbish in the area, which is a real shame.

Greatly improved since redevelopment

The neighbourhood has improved significantly since the redevelopment. All the new homes built by Trudo look sleek and are of good quality, but as a result the whole area has acquired a bit of a 'Vinex look' and still lacks some character and atmosphere. Furthermore, it could do with more greenery, and there is often a pile of rubbish around the underground waste bins. There is also still no supermarket in the neighbourhood. The Spar on Celsiusplein is far too expensive, and the nearest next supermarket is beyond the ring road.
