Geweldig

Tuinstad en Vestingstad zijn m.i. een van de meest sfeervolle wijken van Schuytgraaf. Rustig, veilig en alle voorzieningen zijn aanwezig. En met 4 minuten loop je Park Lingezegen in. Gezinsvriendelijk en daardoor een erg gewilde wijk. Nadeel zijn wel alle bakfietsen…

Fijne buurt met verschillende culturen

Ik woon over het algemeen prettig in deze buurt. De omgeving is fijn en de buurt voelt vertrouwd. Wel is het soms wat minder netjes, bijvoorbeeld door afval op straat. Ook kan het regelmatig luidruchtig zijn, vooral op bepaalde momenten van de dag. Ondanks dat ben ik over het algemeen tevreden over de buurt Na bijna 7 jaar in deze buurt gewoond te hebben, ga ik binnenkort verhuizen. Ik heb hier veel meegemaakt en ben gewend geraakt aan de omgeving. Over het algemeen vond ik het een fijne buurt om te wonen. Soms was het helaas wat minder netjes en kon het ook behoorlijk luidruchtig zijn. Toch zal het na zo’n lange tijd best even wennen zijn om hier weg te gaan. Ik kijk met gemengde gevoelens terug op de afgelopen jaren en ben benieuwd naar mijn nieuwe woonplek.

Asobiurt , kom hier asjeblieft niet.

Een bende!! Veel rokers met honden en veel luidruchtige, asociale jeugd op fatbikes die met name op het winkelcentrum rondhangen. Nu is het een bende, met dezelfde jeugd die hun afval overal op straat en in het groen gooien, er is echt ZOVEEL zwerfafval, ongelofelijk. Ontzettend vies rondom vuilnisbakken ook. Zelden tot nooit is er toezicht of surveillance, misschien als het wat rustiger is, kennelijk durft niemand niemand aan te spreken op hun gedrag. Je voelt je er niet veilig ieg. Verder veel kleine oude woningen en grote flats en weinig scholen.

Lekker dichtbij alles! Nette buren…

Ik woon er al jaren, nooit problemen gehad met de buren/ buurt. Stad is lekker dichtbij, iedereen is er voor elkaar! Ik zal nooit naar een andere buurt willen verhuizen!…

Asociale buurt

Ik heb 12 jaar in orde gewoond en je ziet echt dat de buurt keihard achter uit gaat mijn mening kijk lekker verder als je onder de normale mensen wilt wonen. Iedereen gooit zijn afval naast de containers. Scholen falen om vatsoenlijk Nederlandse te geven. De woning bouw doet niks aan de veiligheid van de huurders, willen camera toezicht maar wordt afgewezen. Bij de voorzieningen hangt alleen maar jongere waardoor de kleine kinderen hier niet veilig kunnen spelen.

Neighbourhood review

It is a beautiful, quiet neighbourhood, surrounded by nature. There are some spots where you wouldn't want to walk in the evening, but these are relatively few. The people are very involved with each other and have many mutual connections. However, people drive quite fast on the streets.
