A lot is organised by various associations, from music to all kinds of activities and festivities. There is an ice rink (in summer a large football field), playground, basketball court and a mini library. We have a community centre with a village pub. We still have an old-fashioned village newspaper with information for and about the villagers. Walk each other's dog? No problem! Feed the cats during the holidays? Check! Neighbourhood drinks next week? Cosy! Walking or cycling, you are in the middle of nature in no time (the Onner polder or the forest). It's lovely living in a quiet village, but there is also plenty to do. I've been living here for 7 years now and I'm sure many more years will follow. Points for improvement? Finding a house here is not easy. Few houses are for sale and those that are for sale are pricey, very difficult for starters/young families. Previously, the bus ran all day to/through Onnen, now only in the morning and afternoon. A pity.

About Dorpsweg 8, Onnen
The asking price of €890,000 is on the high side compared to other vrijstaande woningen in Groningen. However, the plot of 2945 m² is exceptionally large for a village property, which partly justifies the price. The home has an energy label C and a floor area of 160 m², built in 1905. Given the limited supply in Onnen, the price reflects the desirability of the location.
Onnen Dorp is a quiet village with a strong sense of community. Residents organise many activities through associations, and there is a community centre with a village pub. The village has an ice rink, playground, basketball court, and a mini library. It is a family-friendly area with mostly single-family homes. The crime rate is very low, with only 4 incidents reported.
The nearest train station is 3.3 km away from the home. This makes it possible to commute by train, though a car or bicycle is needed to reach the station. The bus service to Onnen is limited, running only in the morning and afternoon.
The closest primary school is IKC Quintusschool, about 2 km away. Other primary schools within 5 km include Christelijk Kindcentrum Menso Altingschool and Rooms Katholieke Basisschool Mariaschool.
