The Schildersbuurt neighbourhood

The Schildersbuurt neighbourhood is a cosy, lively area on the edge of the city. Based on two reviews, residents appreciate the atmosphere. One resident says: "I think it's a nice neighbourhood, but I do think there should be more places for the hanging out youth." Another adds: "Incredibly cosy fresh neighbourhood. You notice that many young people live here but there is relatively little nuisance. Although there are nice bars in the area. Also, at New Year's there is a nice tradition of making a fire on the roundabout, very cosy!!" The area is densely populated, with many young people and single-person households.
