Auto-translated to English by AInormal neighbourhood but very dependent on exactly where you are. the closer to the railway, the worse it gets. waste nuisance around the Aldi is excessive and really needs attention. speeding on the Mozartlaan, Paganinistraat, Oude Postweg, Jozef Haydnlaan is also significant. speeding is too easy and it's unclear what the maximum speed is. small gardens and green strips also need attention. where the streets are swept regularly (plus point), the gardens are maintained once a year. I feel safe enough, although it's not always great, loud foreign voices, groups of men and overdue maintenance on sometimes entire blocks.

Auto-translated to English by AIPeople keep to themselves, but aren't distant. They can still have a chat here and there. There are many dog owners in the neighbourhood whose dogs play together a lot, which sometimes creates a cosy atmosphere. A downside is that there's a lot of fireworks set off in the evenings/nights. Also, a lot of rubbish is dumped by the plastic/paper containers, or entire households' furniture is thrown away.
Auto-translated to English by AII don't know the neighbours very well myself, but everyone does say hello to each other. It's a nice but very occasionally noisy neighbourhood to live in. Everything is conveniently close by, like the supermarkets, city centre, takeaway food and even a small local café. Klein Driene is also easily accessible by car, bike and public transport!

Auto-translated to English by AIA snug rural area, despite being close to the motorway, almost never bothered by the noise. Lots of nature and wildlife around us. And friendly neighbours.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur street was once a beautiful street. But ruined completely by certain people. And you don't get any help. Such a shame. The neighbourhood is also not well maintained by the municipality; nowadays this is only for the better neighbourhoods where people with money live. And the housing association washes its hands of many things. The ordinary person can only get flats anymore. Where has our Hengelo gone, where I always lived so happily! What could be improved is the rubbish situation, that houses are better maintained, overall maintenance of streets, etc. And that there aren't deep trenches next to streets, life-threatening. Even if you call them, they change nothing. Fences around playgrounds, making unsafe streets safe again. And that they don't charge mega rent prices for small old houses and that new houses are also built for social renters. And that the municipality and police really intervene when necessary. But something has to happen first. Sad, all of it! Such a shame!
