Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood and almost everything within walking distance. The only pity is that there is little to no greenery in the street/neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIA nice location in terms of all amenities. The station is nearby and within a few minutes' walk you are also at one of the markets or the Herestraat (centre). However, this is also where the red light district (my neighbourhood) is located, where there is a bit more crime. This is managed with preventive measures and police that are quick on their feet. Other than that, there are also beautiful old houses in this neighbourhood and I have a pleasant street in terms of neighbours.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe Praediniussingel in Groningen is a beautiful and quiet street with lots of greenery and beautiful architecture. It is a perfect place, you have all the necessary amenities thanks to the nearby Westerhaven. Even though it is close to the city, you don't experience the hustle and bustle of the city. The area is safe and clean, and there are several nice parks and shops in the neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AII have really enjoyed living here from the start. Young and old live here and it is very green. You can easily walk into the city centre and there are many eateries in the area.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe 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.
Auto-translated to English by AII personally experience little cohesion in the neighbourhood. Nevertheless, it is a cosy spot, lots of nice houses, easily accessible. Just a bit lacking in green & not always very clean.

How residents experience their municipality
Ik woon hier nu, met ups en downs qua lawaai/herrie, nu 12,5 jaar. Altijd gekozen om hier toch te blijven, gezien de fijne buren en nette straat, met de mooie Hamburgervijver om de hoek waar ik graag eens zit te relaxen. Alle voorzieningen vlakbij en bushalte aan de kade, ideaal als je vaak en graag reist :). Ik voel me hier onderhand erg veilig, in al die tijd alleen eens een brand geweest maar verder kun je hier rustig je leventje leven, veelal hoog opgeleide buren, wat prettig is in het contact. Ik ben blij dat ik hier nog steeds woon.
Auto-translated to English by AIMooie huizen, goede voorzieningen, rustig, zo in de stad. toppp
