Centrum is a mixed urban area with a high density of addresses (2,101 per km²). Of the 1,595 residents, half are 65 or older, and many live alone, 610 one-person households out of 1,020. One resident says: "The street in front of my house is busy on some days. And otherwise quiet, and on Sundays you can hear the church bells ringing and the cheaper fair." The neighbourhood Centrum has a strong community feel, with a good mix of ages despite the older demographic.
For groceries you have an Aldi just around the corner, an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away, and a PLUS within a five-minute walk. Primary schools are a ten-minute walk: Kindcentrum Platijn and De Zevensprong. The municipality Best offers all daily amenities within easy reach, including a GP and a train station.
At the time of writing the home is listed via ERA Makelaardij Ed Willems and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.
