Auto-translated to English by AIThe Leusderkwartier is super cosy. The neighbourhood looks nice, you can go in all directions, the city is nearby, you can easily go into the forest and all other important amenities are also close by. As far as I know, almost nothing serious ever happens here. The schools in the area are also super good and really take care of their students.
