How residents experience their neighbourhood
My neighbourhood is fantastic. We have a big dog as a neighbour. Sounds peculiar but it's really true. The dog is a statue near the station. It's only five minutes away. We're also five minutes from the centre. The houses I live in are non-commissioned officers' homes. Once a year there is a flea market. There are also stumbling stones in the street. In short, a street with a rich but also sad history in that respect. I really enjoy living here. When I sit in my garden, I really don't feel like I'm living almost in the city. Isn't that wonderful?

How residents experience their municipality
I was born and raised in marsdijk assen. I have lived in this nice neighbourhood for 14 years, which is also because I am 14 years old. I enjoy living here. I generally feel quite safe, except when you go to the anne frank park after 8pm. the atmosphere there is usually grim. it is a very cosy neighbourhood, I definitely recommend people to live here. especially if they have a pretty daughter my age.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is cosy but can be noisy in the evening in the adjacent park, but overall it's always fine and not much else happens in the area.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere's nothing in this neighbourhood. Everything is gone. Have to go to other districts for activities, etc. I drive an electric wheelchair myself and that makes it even more difficult.
Auto-translated to English by AIFriendly people but everyone keeps to themselves
Auto-translated to English by AIReasonably neat, but more green maintenance by residents themselves, more control over housing construction. Shops, schools, playgrounds sufficient.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a decent neighbourhood. Never any crazy stuff, just quiet.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a pretty decent neighbourhood, sometimes there are fireworks or other loud noises, and you often hear the police and ambulance driving by. But otherwise it's a fairly quiet neighbourhood and I'm glad I live here, I can easily get to other places from here. Like Groningen or Zwolle. Which is very handy.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a neighbourhood where many diverse people live, often it's very cosy but there can also be a lot of hassle among each other at certain times. A bit more consideration could be given to plants and flowers and grass fields.
