Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood! The streets and pavements could do with a facelift.. They give a very outdated/neglected appearance.
Auto-translated to English by AII have no negative experiences with the neighbourhood. Great neighbourhood and all important facilities are nearby. The centre is within walking distance. Plenty of green spaces in the area.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe live in a very nice neighbourhood. There is a large off-leash area for the dog where we can often be found. Here you also meet many neighbours. The dogs and their owners get to know each other and can have a chat when they run into each other in the beautiful nature reserve where we live very close by. It's always cosy and everyone helps each other.

How residents experience their municipality
In the neighbourhood there are many cultured people, very cosy! The only downside is that there are also antisocial people living here.. and they don't give a damn about anything or anyone.. there is little parking space right in front of my door, which is really not pleasant, the neighbourhood itself is quite close-knit and everyone enjoys chatting with each other during New Year's or a summer day. There is hardly any greenery here and there, some bushes here and there but that's about it.. luckily they are busy renovating and greening the part where we live, so that's something I consider a plus point for the neighbourhood. Unfortunately, it's often the case that houses have overdue maintenance due to landlords or people who simply don't care about what their house looks like.
Auto-translated to English by AIWell, the paving stones could be laid properly and the gardens maintained, and those pesky oak trees could be removed and replaced with nice shrubs.
