With 236 m² of living space on a generous 1200 m² plot, it offers plenty of room for a family. The home was built in 1980 and has an A energy label, so it's efficient to run.

Molenveld is home to around 2,600 residents, with a mix of ages and household types. The neighbourhood has a moderate urban feel (score 3 out of 5), with about 1,022 addresses per km². Based on one review, the feedback is critical: one resident says, "I give this neighbourhood a failing grade on several important aspects. Safety feels limited due to persistent nuisance and lack of supervision. The community is not close-knit; many residents move away quickly or pass away, resulting in little social cohesion." Another adds, "Far too much nuisance in this street and area. Too busy roads with noise pollution and stench. Loitering youths shouting their heads off, even at night." These are strong words, so it's worth visiting the area yourself to see how it feels. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Molenveld page.
For your daily shopping, SPAR express is just around the corner, with Aldi a five-minute walk away and Albert Heijn a ten-minute walk. There are several schools nearby: Dendron College (secondary) is a couple of streets away, and Basisschool De Twister (primary) is within a five-minute walk. A restaurant is on your doorstep, and a park or public garden is a ten-minute walk away. The train station is 4.3 km away, so you'll need a car or bike for longer journeys.

I give this neighbourhood a failing grade on several important aspects. Safety feels limited due to persistent nuisance and lack of supervision. The community is not close-knit; many residents move away quickly or pass away, resulting in little social cohesion. Hygiene leaves much to be desired. There is often rubbish on the streets and public spaces are poorly maintained. Housing is also of poor quality. Many homes are in bad condition, with deferred maintenance and conditions reminiscent of slums. Furthermore, the living environment is unpleasant due to constant noise pollution and air pollution. The lack of greenery and an attractive natural environment makes the neighbourhood even less pleasant to live in. All in all, this is an area where the quality of life is low and improvement is needed in many areas. Due to the poor living conditions, noise pollution and pollution, I recommend considering another neighbourhood. Avoid this area if you value peace, safety and a clean living environment.
Auto-translated to English by AIFar too much nuisance in this street and area. Too busy roads with noise pollution and stench. Loitering youths shouting their heads off, even at night. Playground with screaming kids, early in the morning, when you couldn't sleep at night due to other nuisance. Lots of loud music, parties weekly in the area, continuing late into the night. Stench of tar or similar from farmers, businesses. Difficulty breathing or airing out the house. Restaurant with many car visitors, also nuisance from exhaust fumes, slamming car doors, loud talking. The house is very poorly insulated. All in all, an enclave of extremely poor living. Neighbour nuisance doesn't help either, weird Dutch people and their rotten characters. It destroys you as a person. I'm already looking for something else. There is no peace here and no healthy green environment. This requires a total renovation which the municipality and landlord don't want to do, just milk the citizen and drop dead.
