How residents experience their district
I've been living in Nieuwerkerk for 4 years now. I enjoy walking and buying food at the Reigerhof. What I do notice is that Nieuwerkerk is a place for white people. The white privilege is insane, but as soon as you bring your brown boyfriend to your house, you get stared at a bit strangely as if something shady is going on. Now I am white myself and I do fit in here a bit, but the general inclusivity could use some improvement. Also, the train station is abnormally ugly and the trains always have delays, but hey, that's the fault of the cash-grabbing NS. I would also like to express my appreciation for Hitland. I am very happy with the fact that I have the opportunity to hop on my bike and cycle to a forest for some privacy and nature.

Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice people, very helpful and often throw parties. I think the neighbourhood itself is quite far from the train and metro, namely a 20-minute walk and a 50-minute walk.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur neighbourhood is very cosy, old and new are celebrated together, always hello and good morning and everyone knows each other. There is just no school in this area so you have to cycle a bit, that's why I gave a failing grade. My neighbourhood is very close to the sports fields which is super handy.
