I've been living here for about 8 years, nothing special happens here. The funniest thing is near my building there is a junction where people can go right or left, and in the past 4 months alone there have been 3 accidents, so hopefully they'll do something about the street here. As for education, there are only one or two primary schools in the neighbourhood, no secondary school except one that only offers VMBO?? I really don't understand why they do that. And it would be very liveable if they laid tram lines between the colleges/universities and here, because I go to The Hague 4 days a week and I have to walk all the way to tram 9 and then on the way back I also have to walk all the way back.
