Rivierenbuurt: central, lively, and mixed

The Rivierenbuurt is a dense, urban neighbourhood with a very high address density (4374 addresses per km²). It's a young area: over a third of residents are between 25 and 45, and a third are under 25. Reviews are mixed: one resident calls it a "top location" and says "it's close and just far enough from the centre that you're in a quiet, cosy neighbourhood, but you can easily find the bustling centre within 5 minutes." Another is less positive, noting "many drug users, many dogs pooping on the street, a lot of noise." A third review mentions the neighbourhood "isn't really green" but is "relatively accessible." These six reviews give an average score of 6.84. Read more about the neighbourhood Rivierenbuurt.

Surroundings

The neighbourhood isn't really green. There are many houses close together, despite that it is a relatively accessible neighbourhood.

Top location

It's close and just far enough from the centre that you're in a quiet, cosy neighbourhood, but you can easily find the bustling centre within 5 minutes. This will only get better when the new station is finished.

Cozy and busy

Station nearby, pub/terrace nearby, supermarket within walking distance and city centre also 5 minutes by bike. But the street is busy with traffic. Other than that, there are many students/young professionals living here, so there's almost never any trouble with crime (once a man was in our garden stealing empty crates of beer), but there can be some noise nuisance.

Pleasant living environment near the city centre

A very nice neighbourhood to live in! Within walking distance of the city and yet green spaces nearby. Pleasant to live in both as a student and as parents with young children!
