Residents across the municipality of Utrechtse Heuvelrug give their living environment an average score of 8.31, based on 29 reviews. One resident says: "Peace and space. Quiet, friendly people, all amenities within 1 kilometre and nature around the corner. The bus to Utrecht, Wageningen or Veenendaal stops 4 times per hour 400 metres away. Great place to live." Another resident, living in Driebergen Rijsenburg, notes: "It's a quiet neighbourhood. I live on the edge of Driebergen, on a street with almost only farms, and it's very quiet.
