Living in the Hortusbuurt-Ebbingekwartier
Residents give the neighbourhood an average score of 7.88, based on six reviews. One resident says: "A vibrant neighbourhood with lots of nice people. Actually, everything is just fine. There are several eateries in the neighbourhood, supermarkets are close by, bus stops, you can park your bike easily, and with the city beach there is also a beautiful and well-known green area." Another adds: "Very pleasant living, central but not too busy. Really great! All amenities are within walking distance, including a small park. You're in the city centre in no time." A third resident notes: "The neighbourhood is cosy and quiet. The park is easily accessible and the people in the area are friendly, but there is often litter on the streets, which is a shame." The area is very strongly urban, with a high address density, and a large share of young adults between 15 and 25 years old.
