What makes it truly special is the strong sense of community. The neighbours are warm and friendly, I know everyone on my street and there's always a smile or a greeting. When I'm working in my front garden, people often stop to say hello and have a chat. It's a place where you truly feel connected and at home.
Auto-translated to English by AILunetten zuid is a fairly extensive area, but there are common characteristics: There is little traffic on the streets, even the ring road is relatively quiet. Many houses are situated around a shared green space with some play facilities. This quickly creates a bond with the neighbours. Because Lunetten is separated from the city by a park and forts, which are part of the UNESCO heritage, it has some village-like features. If you value your privacy and don't like contact, then Leidsche rijn is more likely a place where you'll feel at home. Lunetten is not a place of high fences, but rather has a scent of granola with a hint of wokeness. If you feel at home with that, you are very welcome, but if you are not willing to do something for the neighbourhood or your neighbours, there are plenty of other places where you will feel at home.
