About Briljantstraat 395, Groningen

The WOZ value is used for tax purposes and may differ from what buyers are willing to pay.

Lots of crime in the neighbourhood. Many young people who are part of it. Dangerous roundabouts where many accidents happen.

Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a lot of greenery in Vinkhuizen. I find this important. In terms of shops and facilities, there is plenty available. However, as a woman, I don't go out on the street in the evening because things often happen in this neighbourhood.

How residents experience their district
There is always something to do. There are supermarkets and plenty of other shops, cafeterias, fresh bread from the bakery. Market once a week, a nice park with ponds for fishing.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, it's safe to cycle home in the evening but it's not super either. And there is a huge piece of nature
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything in the neighbourhood: shops, sports facilities, schools, community centres. So something for everyone.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe nearest bus stop is via line 8 and the frequency is only once every half an hour, which is annoying. The roads aren't smooth, there are potholes. But apart from that, the living experience is nice and peaceful, and the community I have is really nice! It could be more accessible through a closer bus stop and more frequent buses, and a grocery store nearby walking distance at least. The neighbourhood is relatively safe, but there have been thieves in the past year and break-ins. The neighbourhood is also relatively hygienic, and trash bins are easily accessible. Housing could be improved, more houses should be built. There is a park nearby so the green spaces are nice.
Auto-translated to English by AIDon't feel safe. Have been hit by fast bikes several times. In Diamandpark. Vinkhuizen. As a result, my dog now has a limp. When I tell them they should walk there, I get called whore slut and they even spit on you. They are all foreigners, sorry. The neighbourhood is a rubbish dump. They don't give a damn about us. This has to stop.

Auto-translated to English by AIWhen I moved here with my family 14 years ago, I never knew this would become my favourite neighbourhood. I immediately made friends and I enjoy spending time outside. Every summer, activities are organised in our block to maintain and strengthen our bonds. I can say that everyone who knows each other here is cool with one another.

How residents experience their municipality
Ik woon hier nu, met ups en downs qua lawaai/herrie, nu 12,5 jaar. Altijd gekozen om hier toch te blijven, gezien de fijne buren en nette straat, met de mooie Hamburgervijver om de hoek waar ik graag eens zit te relaxen. Alle voorzieningen vlakbij en bushalte aan de kade, ideaal als je vaak en graag reist :). Ik voel me hier onderhand erg veilig, in al die tijd alleen eens een brand geweest maar verder kun je hier rustig je leventje leven, veelal hoog opgeleide buren, wat prettig is in het contact. Ik ben blij dat ik hier nog steeds woon.
