De Mheen, Apeldoorn
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Kruizemuntstraat sits in a quiet part of De Mheen, a neighbourhood where people know each other and look out for one another. With 118 m² of living space and a 169 m² plot, it offers more room than many homes in the area. The asking price of €425,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood median of €350,000, but it reflects the larger floor area and the fact that end-of-terrace houses in Apeldoorn tend to command a premium.
De Mheen scores a 7.9 out of 10 from residents, based on six reviews. One resident says: "A quiet neighbourhood where everyone knows each other. It is very safe and people participate in neighbourhood apps. You can always turn to people and know almost everyone."

Families mess up the front and back gardens, and there is dealing on the school grounds in the dark evenings." The neighbourhood has a strong sense of community, though some feel the housing association doesn't always address issues. Most homes are owner-occupied (62%), and the area is popular with families, 530 households have children. The neighbourhood De Mheen is well served by parks and a shopping centre.

A simple neighbourhood but nowadays everything is being crammed into vacant houses. Families that mess up the front and back gardens. This has been reported several times but the housing association thinks it's fine and doesn't consider the neighbours. A school with a lot of traffic nuisance and dog owners who walk their dogs on a children's playground without cleaning up. There is also dealing on the school grounds in the dark evenings and it takes a while before the police or enforcement arrive.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a very safe neighbourhood where people also participate in various neighbourhood apps. You can always turn to people in your neighbourhood and know almost everyone in your area. It is also a very clean neighbourhood where you find little litter on the street due to enough waste collection points. Only the education is somewhat lacking as there is only one primary school and one secondary school. You don't have to look far for greenery here, as you almost live next to a park. This park has many facilities to keep you entertained. There are also facilities such as a swimming pool and grass fields for sports. Accessibility is also fine, as you can reach this area from almost any part of Apeldoorn. In summary, it is a quiet, pleasant neighbourhood with plenty to do, and the people in the area are very friendly. There are also many amenities such as a shopping centre and a large park with lots of greenery.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur neighbourhood has quite a sense of community, despite the fact that different people live here. It's just a shame that sometimes they place families in houses that would be better off in a flat. They spoil the neighbourhood. The youth are cheeky, so there's nuisance. Contacted the housing association but with little result. They do come to look and then 'shame on you', but nothing further is done. In terms of children, it's also very nice to live near a school. Only some traffic issues with drop-off and pick-up. There's also a grass field for the youth, but it's a shame there's no supervision of dog owners who walk their dogs there. We've lived here for 24 years with pleasure, but these are things that impoverish the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIGreat neighbourhood, park and shops within walking distance. More elderly people than young people, which I sometimes find a bit of a shame.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in the neighbourhood for over 13 years, I find it a nice neighbourhood myself. All people who are friendly, I'm quite proud of that. The cosiness among the neighbourhood and children. It's cosy on our street.
Auto-translated to English by AIA cosy neighbourhood in itself Also with foreign families (Turkish, Moroccan and other foreigners) Every neighbourhood has its bad apples but that shouldn't spoil it here, it remains super nice a school nearby with a playground Only some residents with dogs think it's a dog walking field and don't clean up, that should be better enforced there are too few bins for dog waste after all we pay dog tax (I do) Football club within cycling distance park with fishing water and we all keep an eye on everything except 2 houses Shopping centre within walking distance
