Zuid-Berghuizen
Zuid-Berghuizen is a mixed residential area with a strong family presence. Around a third of households have children, and the age spread is fairly even across the generations, from young children to those over 65. The housing stock is mostly single-family homes, with about three-quarters of the properties being houses rather than flats. Owner-occupied homes make up just over half of the stock, so there is a healthy mix of owners and renters. The neighbourhood itself feels settled and green, with a park just a short stroll away.
Life on the street
The daily routine here is straightforward. For groceries, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there are several other supermarkets within a short drive. For school runs, the Franciscusschool is a ten-minute walk, and secondary options like the Twents Carmel College are also within easy reach. A GP practice and a childcare centre are both close by, which makes the practical side of family life simple. The municipality of Oldenzaal keeps the surrounding area well served with these everyday amenities.
