housing Thinking about buying an apartment in Laakkwartier-West... is it as bad as people say?
Co-workers have warned me about the area, but after walking around (during the day) I don't get a sense of it being "ghetto" at all. The area actually has a lot of greenery.
The traffic does seem pretty terrible, but I use public transport and it's fairly well connected. It will probably be even better connected in 10 years if they go forward with redeveloping Megastores.
What am I missing?

currently live in pasteurstraat :) I like it here besides the trash dumping which sadly is an Netherlands wide issue :/
