I notice that our neighbourhood is quite warm, overall just a nice and cosy atmosphere. But I do miss things to do, you can hardly do anything in Nieuwegein except go to the city, where are the cinemas, bars etc.

The streets are safe and all streets and shops are very accessible. The streets are also very spacious. The neighbourhood could use a bit more greenery, but with the beautiful Parkhout, De doorslag is already well on its way.
