Bad, loitering youths harassing neighbours. I can't really say it's safe, they tear through the streets with cars or fatbikes. Preferably with phone in hand. Police hardly ever check anything.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the Hamelpark and the adjoining streets are concerned, investment should be made in traffic safety. Although all of Oudheusden is designated as a "woonerf", for some it seems more like a racetrack. How fast can I drive past the speed-reducing measures such as speed bumps and road narrowings? The delivery services are also to blame for this. The neighbourhood has many children and motorists do not seem to take this into account, and it will go wrong one day. For a long time, the neighbourhood had a stable core of residents. Recently, labour migrants and emigrants dominate the housing market, and that is not a good prospect. They have no connection with their neighbours. As a result, the gap between current residents and newcomers will widen until everyone has left the neighbourhood. A missed opportunity for the municipality of Heusden to put a stop to this early on. This battle is lost. Not recommended for anyone looking for peace and cosiness.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's nice to grow up in Oudheusden. There are many playgrounds, several primary schools, and the library is accessible. The main downside is the accessibility of Oudheusden by public transport. The bus goes to Den Bosch once every 30 minutes, but places like Waalwijk and Drunen are only reachable by the Buurtbus, which doesn't always run on time. If you want to travel outside the immediate area, you quickly become dependent on a car. Additionally, I think there has been a lot of litter on the streets in recent months. That's always a shame.
