This top 7 was compiled based on resident reviews on Buurtje.nl (as of May 2025). Only neighbourhoods with sufficient reviews were included to ensure the reliability of the results. The hygiene score is based on residents' experiences with the cleanliness of their living environment – think of waste facilities, street scene and maintenance of greenery. In addition to the subjective resident data, additional insights from the Leefbaarometer were also used, an instrument of the Ministry of the Interior that provides objective data on liveability. This looks at, among other things, the physical living environment, facilities and maintenance. By combining these two sources, a complete and nuanced picture emerges of where it is clean and pleasant to live in Zwolle.Is your neighbourhood clean? Let us and other residents know!
