It's just such a shame that the 'bus' doesn't serve all neighbourhoods; that would be nice, especially for the elderly without transport. Then our 'shopping centre' is far too small, dependent on one supermarket. Not the best. And it would also be nice to have a 'market' once every 14 days, or once a month. This especially for the elderly. A lot of demands, huh?? You ask, I deliver . .

Auto-translated to English by AII really come into my own and enjoy the many parks. A special place is the exercise park by the water and what I like most is the beach. There are many house cats roaming around, all of which are cuddly.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery quiet neighbourhood, green spaces are well maintained. Would have liked to see a few more shops here, dependent on A.-H., is definitely not pleasant. It's not cosy by any means, so-called 'shopping centre'!! No stop for line 3/4. Always have to transfer, Noordhove is a 'forgotten part'.
