Annen is a small village with about 3,500 residents, where most homes are owner-occupied and the streets are quiet. One resident describes it as a "Quiet neighbourhood, fine place to live", adding: "Contact with immediate neighbours is good. You can always ask for help or to borrow a lawnmower, for example. There is social control, but not in an annoying way." The village has a mix of ages, with many families and older residents. For more on the area, see municipality Aa en Hunze.

Experiences from the neighbourhood
Very good · 1 resident
Contact with immediate neighbours is good. You can always ask for help or to borrow a lawnmower, for example. There is social control, but not in an annoying way. More like extra eyes on the lookout, which does give a sense of safety. The village has sufficient amenities and nearby Zuidlaren has many shops, such as a chemist and a butcher. The bus connection to Groningen is great, every half hour. Secondary schools are a bit more difficult in terms of transport if you don't want to go to Gieten or Assen. People in the village are friendly, but I notice it's hard to really integrate without children.
