Experiences from Ypenburg
How residents experience their district
Pleasant living close to amenities and nature area.
Auto-translated to English by AIIf something is going on, the neighbours often want to help or offer a sympathetic ear! Actually, nothing really crazy ever happens in the neighbourhood, only people often drive too fast late at night. When the bins are full, all the residents report it and they are emptied quickly, which I personally find very nice. The neighbourhood and the residents keep the area very tidy and clean, I feel privileged to live in such a beautiful place.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for almost 17 years, it's a beautiful neighbourhood, lots of lovely families, schools, a big park, you name it, it's great, it's very clean here, it's located near the motorway, it's super easy to reach
Auto-translated to English by AIWhen I first moved here, I thought, oh nice, a nice quiet neighbourhood, but that quickly faded. I myself have aggressive neighbours who throw their joints everywhere and just move your things without asking. Way too many loitering youths in the area, they terrorise the shopping centre every evening, and there's just nothing fun here. It's dirty everywhere, there's litter and rubbish, and it just stinks.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe part where I live is very social, but you notice that the neighbourhood is deteriorating; more rubbish is left on the streets and it's more restless in the evening. We also experience enormous parking pressure because everything around our neighbourhood has become paid parking, but not here, even though we applied for it. The fact that there is a lot of greenery in our neighbourhood gives a nice feeling. Public transport is very good; you have access to bus, tram and train, making it easy to get anywhere. The motorway is also easily accessible.
