I have quite a lot of experience with the neighbourhood; it's a very nice neighbourhood and there is a community centre called Boeninhuis and it's so nice there, the teacher helps a lot, there is a food bank, there are shops, and there is an AH to go at the station. It's a very pleasant neighbourhood to live in; everyone helps everyone when needed. There are many schools: BHC, TASC, Orion College, and another school next to Orion College, and Klaverblad, De Schakel, De Dreef. There is a school for almost everyone except havo/vwo students, but it's like a top neighbourhood. You can also do quite a lot here; it's quite safe here and you can get from Venserpolder to many places because there are metro stations, bus stations, train stations, buses that go abroad. The streets are sometimes clean, it depends on which block, but my block is clean, although here and there I still see litter. And the houses vary too: you have townhouses, you have flats, you have family homes, you have new homes, sometimes you have really big houses but also small ones like studios. It's a very nice neighbourhood, Venserpolder.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe racist, mentally broken, lowest class dirts come together in this neighbourhood. This is the hell in the Netherlands. The lowest, the ugliest ever seen. I've been all over the country. Really, either the government wants to keep this place like this to isolate the sick people from the rest of society, that's their plan, or I can't imagine they are not aware how critical the situation is in Venserpolder. They must put the cameras back on the streets and police must walk around a couple of times every day. There should be some places open where you can get back to the Amsterdam spirit. Cafes or cultural places for other than Surinamese culture. They are here being perfectly isolated and raise their kids racist against anything white and the government has no idea about it or they have some other sick plans. Because this neighbourhood needs a deep cleaning and social rebuilding!
