Cosy, everyone chats with each other on the street. We are kept well informed about what is happening in the neighbourhood via a newsletter. And then an information evening is held. In the playground, the neighbourhood police officer could patrol the area more often.
Auto-translated to English by AIThey keep an eye on each other. Everyone has a chat every now and then. More and more young families with children are moving in, so there's a bit more going on. Children playing, nice for the elderly who no longer work but are at home or alone.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is an oasis of calm, inhabited by true Leideners. It is very centrally located, close to Leiden Central and the centre of Leiden. Despite the central location, the neighbourhood is remarkably quiet. The people here are very private and reserved; I don't know my neighbours well. Although greenery is lacking in the neighbourhood, there is a playground. All in all, the neighbourhood offers a quiet environment, despite the limited social interaction and the lack of green spaces.
