Auto-translated to English by AIOld and new buildings mixed together. Large single-family homes interspersed with high-rise buildings. Lots of greenery and quite a few children's playgrounds. So child-friendly. School and community centre present. Shops (10-2023): -supermarket (Dekamarkt) -thrift store -flower kiosk (Aardenburg) -permanent fish stall (de Vissende Beer) -pharmacy (Donker/Velsen-Noord) -hairdresser -computer/phone shop (Mata) -tobacconist (Rozing) -bakery (Goemans) -drugstore (Fleuren) -snack bar/Chinese takeaway (Quality2) -Turkish fresh food shop -casino And scattered around the village some eateries. The residents are either very social and open or very reserved. It's a good place to live. Only there's nothing for young people aged 14-18 to do, so they hang out on the streets and sometimes cause a huge amount of nuisance.

Experiences from Velsen
How residents experience their municipality
Good experience. I have never felt unsafe in my neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIMany houses in the Rivierenbuurt are old and poorly insulated. This causes drafts, dampness and high energy costs. Also, the maintenance of some homes is insufficient, which detracts from the appearance of the neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's sometimes busy but also quiet. If you don't know people, you have nothing to do. If you want to get to know people, there are nice community centres or for 50+ Sluis 51. So you can do fun things but you have to take the initiative yourself, otherwise it's very boring. I myself am 19 and am quite satisfied with this neighbourhood. The hygiene is not good, it's often dirty on the street, dog poo is not cleaned up, and Tata Steel emissions don't smell too fresh either. Getting a house is actually impossible because it's full here. My wifi works fine here.
Auto-translated to English by AINice quiet neighbourhood with almost exclusively local traffic. Unfortunately, few to no amenities really nearby. Would have liked a shop closer by.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a quiet neighbourhood, little nuisance, but very cosy, there are many shops within walking distance so fine
Auto-translated to English by AIHonestly a nice neighbourhood with many places where children can play and where only sweet, decent people live
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople themselves are not social compared to when I came to live here. I live in a risk area. You walk out of the street and you can walk in the woods. But you don't do that alone. My house is okay, it just should have been in a different location.
