Auto-translated to English by AIGrew up here since childhood, seeing it transform from an unsafe back alley of Groningen into a nice, cosy, but still somewhat unsafe neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe've been living in Beijum Oost for about 38 years now, and we have good contacts in the neighbourhood! Some people I would even call friends! We're there for each other, help each other and occasionally have coffee at each other's homes. Also with a larger group we have cosy moments in the playground, a BBQ or on Neighbourhood Day coffee with treats! Beijum has everything in terms of shops, doctors, physios, dentists, church activities, but if you want to see no one, you're quickly in beautiful nature areas! For me it's a great neighbourhood to live in! However, I do see that the rental houses have many leaks, which means there is a lot of mould in the houses, which is very unhealthy! Also, the children who hang around and pass through the neighbourhood are sometimes very cheeky and annoying! What we also find irritating is the year-round fireworks, motorbikes racing around the district ring road and the loud music that we don't like!
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are plenty of green areas and there's often a relaxed vibe. But the houses are poorly soundproofed and the street is noisy at night with young people and people setting off (firecracker) fireworks, which isn't great for sleeping.
