Auto-translated to English by AIA safe feeling with (usually) nice neighbours and residents. Also, everything is easily accessible by car due to many roads that run through it. There isn't much greenery to be found, so I think that could be improved by means of a small park, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have lived here for 42 years and with great pleasure. Nice neighbours who look out for each other and regularly come by for a cup of coffee. In one word....Top neighbourhood. Space and lots of activity both in the neighbourhood and on the water.

Experiences from Waadhoeke
How residents experience their municipality
everywhere drunk people, many empty dilapidated houses
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet surroundings, plenty of choice in schools, nature is fine, unfortunately very little to do for both adults and children.
Auto-translated to English by AIYou can count on the people who live there
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice village to live in, but it's hard to get in with the people. I notice that when you receive benefits, you don't belong. Unfortunately. Furthermore, there are many shops and a nice football field here. For the peace and quiet, I want to stay here, especially because my youngest child already has all his friends here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is not suitable for people with small children because people drive very fast and recklessly. Otherwise, the neighbourhood is fine if you like peace and quiet with a beautiful view over the fields.
Auto-translated to English by AICheerful and cosy neighbourhood

Auto-translated to English by AINeighbourhood is nice, but traffic drives way too fast here, so please a speed reducer. Preferably a 30 km/h zone here.
