How residents experience their neighbourhood
Nice neighbourhood, feels safe to an extent. Only many of the houses are old and have their problems. What could be improved in housing is that landlords take complaints seriously and actually come to help.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet neighbourhood, many amenities nearby, friendly residents, centrally located, no play area for young adults (e.g. ping-pong table), little walking space due to bicycles on the pavement
Auto-translated to English by AIAssendorp is quite unique, the name of the neighbourhood says it all. It's a kind of village just outside the ring road and thus within walking distance of the centre where the city walls used to stand. It was originally built for many residents who worked at the railway, with social housing. The houses are generally small workers' cottages with authentic details and over 100 years old. Everything is geared to 100 years ago, but the social cohesion is strong and it's a cosy neighbourhood. The streets are narrow, which unfortunately means they are often clogged with modern cars (which are often bigger than years ago and there are many more residents with a car than when it was built). Residents are diverse, but the neighbourhood is very popular and no longer poor. If you want to get a house in Assendorp now, you have to be quick and bring a hefty sum of money. Residents are increasingly into greenery and one front garden after another is springing up. The sense of togetherness is strong and neighbourhood initiatives like car sharing and neighbourhood BBQs are very common. What is also unfortunately common is the sound of DIY from residents who want to expand their small house as much as possible with an extension or loft conversion. Running through the neighbourhood is the Assendorperstraat as a shopping street and traffic artery. Multifunctional centre de Enk organises many activities and the Azaleapark has recently been expanded. As a resident, I have lived in 4 other cities and also in another neighbourhood in Zwolle, but in none of those neighbourhoods do I feel as at home as in Assendorp!

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice but busy neighbourhood, there are many young children and elderly people living here, which does make the neighbourhood flourish a bit. It's next to a nice and fairly large park where people walk their dogs every day. The violence in the street could be less, though.
