Auto-translated to English by AIa quiet neighbourhood to live in, many elderly people. there is a playground but it is mainly used for grandchildren who are visiting. there is a community centre at the playground where the elderly can participate in group activities; I haven't done that myself. in my street there is little contact between neighbours; you have a chat when you run into each other but you don't go round for coffee.

How residents experience their municipality
Fijne woonomgeving, met winkels en groen in de buurt. Ook snel bij centrum Deventer en station.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is visibly unsafe in the neighbourhood. Drugs are used, there are many loitering youths and graffiti. The public space is cheaply furnished. Houses are from the 1960s and in a state of disrepair. There is a lot of litter on the streets and sometimes problems with mice and other vermin. There is no neighbourhood supermarket, unless you count the petrol station. The square with amenities looks neglected.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet, fine, village-like, lots of nature/gardens, forest. Beautiful cycling routes…. Safe.

Auto-translated to English by AII don't have much contact with the neighbours, but I work as a cashier in the supermarket we have here, so I do come into contact with many people in the neighbourhood. I've lived here for over 10 years and we have a nice petting zoo. 3 primary schools make it a hub for many families. It's usually quiet here, but unfortunately the youth on fatbikes cause regular nuisance.
Auto-translated to English by AIDiepeveen is a super beautiful and cosy village surrounded by nature, where everyone knows each other and is friendly, with schools nearby, plenty of space for young people to play or hang out, and moreover a stone's throw from Deventer.
