Beautiful walking area along the river the Wantij on the Maasstraat. Supermarket and primary school within walking distance. The community centre with the adjacent playground looks shabby, especially because of the old pole with satellite dishes, and there is also a very outdated asphalt square next to the community centre, which gives a desolate impression when you first enter the neighbourhood. That is a shame and gives a wrong impression of the cosy and beautiful neighbourhood. The renovated houses in the adjacent Noorderkwartier are of a beautiful architectural style from the 1920s and 1930s. Most people still say hello to each other here, as if you live in a village, especially the older residents who like to chat create a cosy and friendly atmosphere.
