heeyyllooo there! i hope you dont mind me butting into your LJ like this, ok i am on your friends list after all :) i had a little question, me and my hubby are planning on buying an appartment in amsterdam (we live in DH now) and i rememeber you lived in nijmegen but bought an appartement in bos and lommer right? i was wondering if is a good neigbourhood? i saw some adds for houses there but i am getting mixed reactions about the place and i am just not sure what to do. do you like living there? :)
NP... :) we really like our apartment. I like the location also, but I did hear there are bad parts of the bos and lommer neighborhood... our area seems fine though... and they are changing a lot of the area to ownership instead of renting, so that also raises the community since someone owning has more investment than renting people or something to that effect...
my suggestion is to go to where you are thinking about living and judge the location for yourself... you can also call the local police stations and ask for crime rates in the areas you are looking...
wow thats a fast reaction thanks!! the reason i am asking so much before hand is that going a few times a week from DH to visit houses and then being real dissapointed isnt nice :/
at work they all made a yukky face when i mentioned bos en lommer or de baarsjes :s
you mind me asking how you found out which side is good and which isnt?
to be honest... troy went and saw the house one night, reported back to me (loooong story) I ran to see it the next day and we put an offer down in about 30 minutes after I ran and saw it...
a friend of ours went with T to see it but besides that, we didnt really know I think we just got lucky...
