How residents experience their neighbourhood
Old neighbourhood, generally low income.
Auto-translated to English by AII feel at home in this neighbourhood. Very diverse, safe and easily accessible.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with lots of nature, close to the centre but very quiet.
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't lived here very long, but I'm especially a fan of the green surroundings and walking routes. I was also surprised that people from my block like to chat and know each other reasonably well. On the street I don't always feel very safe, because there are relatively many people with (visible) mental health and/or drug problems. Yet after living here for a short time, I noticed that I need to worry less than I thought and most people are very friendly here. I am less of a fan of the amenities here; only the Plus supermarket is in the neighbourhood, but that's not necessarily very affordable for everyone. Furthermore, there isn't much within walking distance. I also notice that, for example, on my street there is quite a lot of litter (now also a lot of old fireworks) and the gardens are generally not maintained. This could certainly be improved (:
Auto-translated to English by AInice park, close to the centre, two supermarkets nearby, also two hairdressers, community centre with many activities and cheap lunch/dinner around the corner. Second-hand clothing shop, flower shop and a few other shops, including two cafeterias, a pizza delivery, in short plenty of amenities. And also just over 5 minutes by bike from the centre.

How residents experience their district
Very beautiful neighbourhood in Groningen. Lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops. What is unpleasant is that there is often rubbish next to the bins. Furthermore, the neighbourhood has many nice small parks and you are within no time in a quiet natural environment where you can enjoy walking, running, cycling etc. All in all, this neighbourhood is perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers.
Auto-translated to English by AIOld neighbourhood, generally low income.
Auto-translated to English by AII feel at home in this neighbourhood. Very diverse, safe and easily accessible.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is quite cosy, though sometimes dirty because rubbish isn't put in the bins, so hygiene isn't always great. Lots of students, so sometimes there aren't enough places to park your bike. There isn't really a neighbourhood association or other communities that I'm part of. The area also has a primary school, a university of applied sciences, a nice park, several playgrounds and plenty of other amenities. Definitely a safe neighbourhood, but the houses are very old. All in all, a great place to live.
