Auto-translated to English by AIThere are confused people living in the neighbourhood, who no longer make the street pleasant. Why aren't they being helped? We used to have such a nice street. Get support services involved, not the police, and cameras would be desirable against unsafe situations and burglaries.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople keep to themselves a lot. Shutters closed early, and a hello is barely possible. Cars are sometimes parked antisocially. We do accept parcels for each other. It's a mixed company: Dutch, Polish, Turkish. Owner-occupied and rental properties mixed together, poorly maintained houses, gates have weeds a metre high, bulky household waste is regularly dumped.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople are very much to themselves, you get a hello back but that's about it... the shutters close quickly and then it's just a cold street. People keep dumping rubbish on the street and in the gates.

Nice living environment. People look out for each other
Auto-translated to English by AIMy
Auto-translated to English by AIIt remains a nice and quiet neighbourhood, and those young families are entitled to that just as I am. 60 years ago, we also came to live there with 5 children, and now everyone has flown the nest except me! But the memories remain.
Auto-translated to English by AIHelpful, they are there for each other. Too bad there is no Aldi, especially for the elderly, they only have Jumbo. Lidl would also be nice.
