'When I sit in my garden, I really don't feel like I'm living almost in the city,' they add. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many one-person households and a significant number of residents over 65. It's a lively, walkable area with a high address density. The Oranjebuurt neighbourhood is well-connected and has a distinct character.

My neighbourhood is fantastic. We have a big dog as a neighbour. Sounds peculiar but it's really true. The dog is a statue near the station. It's only five minutes away. We're also five minutes from the centre. The houses I live in are non-commissioned officers' homes. Once a year there is a flea market. There are also stumbling stones in the street. In short, a street with a rich but also sad history in that respect. I really enjoy living here. When I sit in my garden, I really don't feel like I'm living almost in the city. Isn't that wonderful?
