The Schoot neighbourhood
The Schoot neighbourhood is a mix of old and new, with the adjacent Strijp-S district bringing a creative buzz. One resident, who has lived here for over 36 years, says: "The fact that I've been living in the same house for over 36 years already indicates that I really enjoy it here. By now I know everyone on my street. We also hold neighbourhood barbecues, etc. There's a street app and everyone is there for each other when needed." Another long-time resident adds: "Almost everything I need is within walking or cycling distance. And the bus stop is also very close." Both mention the downside of small local pubs disappearing, but they appreciate the new energy Strijp-S brings. Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood scores 7.86 out of 10.
Life on the street
Daily life here is convenient. For groceries, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with a Lidl a couple of streets away and another Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk.
