Experiences from Eekmaat West
How residents experience their neighbourhood
Nice, neat and quiet neighbourhood. Lots of greenery, few high-rise buildings, which I really like. We ourselves live in an apartment where we feel at home. The neighbours in our apartment are all older Enschede residents and Glanerbrug residents. Nice complex to live in. The view from our apartment is beautiful, lots of greenery, and you can easily walk into the countryside. However, the shops, apart from a few, are further away. I personally find that a disadvantage. You really need transport if you want to go somewhere. Not everyone can cycle or has a car. I feel safe here; in the 6 years I've lived here, I personally haven't experienced anything that could give an unsafe feeling. You also don't see groups of young people hanging around here.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for about 4 years now and so far I haven't had any problems. It has a beautiful natural environment and it's not too far from certain amenities. By bike, you can reach the city in about 15/20 minutes. However, there are no special amenities within walking distance, just a supermarket, New York Pizza, and a few football fields. That's not really a problem, of course.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbours are very friendly, I live on a very nice street. Basic amenities like supermarkets are very close by, which is very convenient. It is annoying though that if I want to go to the station, I have to travel far.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt used to be nice and cosy. Now all kinds of people move in whom you still don't know after 2 years. Few amenities, nothing to do here. Nature is being destroyed by rich stickers who want to build a house.

Auto-translated to English by AII was born here, many people I grew up with still live here. Neighbourliness is a thing here, we keep an eye on everything. And for a cup of coffee you just pop in to the neighbours. Here it's 'we know each other'.

Auto-translated to English by AISince a few months I have discovered that neighbours are very sneaky. I will have lived here for 10 years in December, never had any problem with the neighbours, but since a few weeks they feel the need to violate my privacy by filming my house and seeing who comes and goes. Very unfortunate, I thought I could live well here, but it turns out they are afraid of me and my guests. They chat pleasantly with you, but behind your back, very sad such people.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a tidy neighbourhood but there are a few people who pick fights and have constant issues with the enforcement, which puts the neighbourhood in a bad light. Other than that, it's not extremely clean because there's a lot of dog poo.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are many problem youths in this neighbourhood. Probably because of people with lower incomes.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's not a nice neighbourhood to live in, junkies are on every corner and everything gets stolen.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood with plenty of amenities, there are many different family compositions and the residents are approachable and pleasant to interact with. However, in my immediate vicinity there is crime such as theft (bicycles/scooters/items) and (car) break-ins. It's a fairly green neighbourhood close to Volkspark, which is of course pleasant, but it could also use some improvement in aesthetics. In my immediate area, street hygiene could certainly be improved, especially the amount of litter on the streets. Overall, the neighbourhood is easily accessible, but to get to places more central in the district you usually have to take a detour.
