The area feels lively but anonymous, as one resident puts it: "By lively I mean that there are many hip young people living here and there are many amenities and infrastructure in the neighbourhood, but it is anonymous because people don't really know each other." Another resident calls it "cool" and appreciates that "everything close to a nice forest, not much hassle." These two reviews give a balanced picture of the Bosch en Vaart neighbourhood.
For your morning bread, Ekoplaza is on your doorstep, and Vomar or Albert Heijn are just around the corner.

By lively I mean that there are many hip young people living here and there are many amenities and infrastructure in the neighbourhood, but it is anonymous because people don't really know each other. You live there and know your neighbours, but you don't really know your neighbours' neighbours. Many people move often.
