I live here with great pleasure. It is a quiet, green and pleasant neighbourhood where you can enjoy walking and nature. Everything you need is nearby (such as shops, public transport and other amenities). The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere. I feel safe here and can definitely recommend this neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is quiet with little contact with the neighbours. It is otherwise relaxed, rich in nature, and of good quality. You are close to The Hague and it's a half-hour drive to Amsterdam. The lack of contact with the neighbourhood has its pros and cons. But it does provide peace. The houses are very closed off from the rest of the street, so there is little contact.
