Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a beautiful neighbourhood with well-maintained houses and gardens, but there is little contact between residents. Although the surroundings are inviting and tidy, you hardly see people on the street and there is little interaction. Everyone seems to go their own way, which makes the neighbourhood, despite its beauty, a bit lonely.

Residents appreciate the park on the doorstep, the nearby pub, and the shopping centre within walking distance. The Kanaalstraat is also close by. However, one resident noted that there is little contact between neighbours, so if you are looking for a tight-knit community, this might not be it. The area is very urban with a high density of addresses.
