However, this house is larger than average (197 m²) and sits on a 513 m² plot, which may justify the premium. The price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but it reflects the size and type of property.

How residents experience their district
The neighbourhood is a backstreet and working-class area and ordinary people, gossip and backbiting are part of it; if they have nothing to tell / know about you, they'll make it up. Unreliable too, they say one thing to you and to someone else they say the opposite. If they're from the church, you have two types: one type you can 100% rely on and trust, the other type puts on a nice face and tries to pull the wool over your eyes, and they've had neighbours and friends write positive reviews on Google and co. You're on your own here, and only when they can profit from you are they sweet and kind.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood. Super central. And the neighbours are good too.
Auto-translated to English by AIWhat we notice is that there isn't really any contact between neighbours in the area, many people simply don't know each other. Other than that, it's a quiet neighbourhood!

How residents experience their municipality
A quiet neighbourhood with an active neighbourhood association. Mainly elderly residents and families.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful neighbourhood, quiet but with super friendly people, really gives you that village feel. Sometimes a bit remote and quite a drive to the motorway, though all essentials are nearby. Beautiful along the Maas for lovely boating.

Auto-translated to English by AIThere have been some thefts at our apartment complex, so I don't really feel safe. The people around us are generally nice, but there are a few bad apples.
Auto-translated to English by AIJust a super nice village. I know I have to tell everything in detail here, but it's just nice here.
