Burgwal is the historic heart of Haarlem, with narrow streets and old buildings. It's a very urban area with over 5,600 addresses per square kilometre. One resident who has lived here since 1992 says: "Have lived here since 1992, still think it's a beautiful neighbourhood, but social contacts are decreasing." Another long-term resident notes: "I've lived here for 33 years and I still walk around proudly at how beautiful the neighbourhood is, but connections and social contacts have deteriorated in the last few years." The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many singles and few families with children. Most homes were built before 1945. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Burgwal.

Auto-translated to English by AIHave lived here for 32 years. Pleasant neighbourhood in itself. Could do with a bit more attention now and then, e.g. emptying containers.
