Most people end up here because they can't find housing in Leiden, Alphen and surrounding areas. But you wouldn't wish this on anyone, no facilities, childcare is full so children go to school in neighbouring municipalities because there is childcare there. You can walk the dog on a strip of verge, nowhere a nice field to be seen let alone a place where they can burn off their energy. Young people have nothing so they regularly vandalise things, every weekend there are fireworks or other nuisance. People are mainly 'bothered' by each other but that's because they are deeply unhappy. The national parking standard is applied in the new housing estates so tough luck if you don't have a space and you'll quickly get a parking ticket. Tyres are slashed, cars scratched and a lot of nuisance from children/young people. Stay away if you can!
