Dichterswijk is a dense, urban area with a mix of old and new housing. One resident, TopBoy28, says: "This neighbourhood used to be a deprived area with many problems.

The neighbourhood has been nicely renovated and looks better than before." The area has a young population, with many people in their twenties and thirties. Most homes are flats, but this terraced house stands out. For more on the area, see the Dichterswijk neighbourhood.
