The neighbourhood Strijen Woonkern is a quiet neighbourhood with a mix of owner-occupied and rental homes. One resident says: "Overall, it's a quiet neighbourhood. There is a dangerous road nearby where many cars drive too fast and accidents often happen. The houses are now divided between owner-occupied and rental. But all rental houses that become vacant are sold. As a result, you can see the neighbourhood gradually improving because people with owner-occupied homes put more time and energy into it. A fine neighbourhood for a family with children. Downside: the green bags are often torn open, causing a lot of litter to scatter around and not being collected by the council. Hygiene could be better. There should be bins everywhere so that bags of rubbish don't end up on the street." Another adds: "Very self-contained, all of it. Almost shy... but when there's something to complain about, we stand our ground. Closed culture. But... what goes around comes around! Your own attitude is very important! Invest and try to break through that Strijense bubble...!" Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood scores 6.87 out of 10. The area is moderately urban, with mostly families and a mix of ages.
For your daily shopping, Lidl is just around the corner and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are within a five-minute walk: CBS De Parel and OBS De Meerwaarde. A GP and a child daycare centre are also on your doorstep. The municipality Hoeksche Waard offers a quiet, green environment with basic amenities close by.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Van der Vinden Makelaars B.V. and also appears on Vastgoed Nederland.
