The Hortusbuurt-Ebbingekwartier neighbourhood

Actually, everything is just fine.

Another adds: "Very pleasant living, central but not too busy. Really great! All amenities are within walking distance, including a small park. You're in the city centre in no time. Nothing to complain about really." A third notes: "The neighbourhood is cosy and quiet. The park is easily accessible and the people in the area are friendly, but there is often litter on the streets, which is a shame." Based on three reviews, the overall score is 7.88 out of 10. The area is dominated by single-person households, with a large share of residents in their twenties and thirties.
