Based on two reviews, residents describe a quiet neighbourhood that is gradually improving as rental homes are sold to owner-occupiers. One resident says: "Overall, it's a quiet neighbourhood. There is a dangerous road nearby where many cars drive too fast and accidents often happen. The houses are now divided between owner-occupied and rental. But all rental houses that become vacant are sold. As a result, you can see the neighbourhood gradually improving because people with owner-occupied homes put more time and energy into it. A fine neighbourhood for a family with children. Downside: the green bags are often torn open, causing a lot of litter to scatter around and not being collected by the council. Hygiene could be better. There should be bins everywhere so that bags of rubbish don't end up on the street." Another adds: "Very self-contained, all of it. Almost shy... but when there's something to complain about, we stand our ground. Closed culture. But... what goes around comes around! Your own attitude is very important! Invest and try to break through that Strijense bubble...!" The neighbourhood has a mix of families and older residents, with mostly owner-occupied homes. The Strijen Woonkern neighbourhood has an address density of 798, making it moderately urban.

The rent is 61% above the neighbourhood average of €1,228, but the floor area of 202 m² is 162% larger than the average of 77 m². So the price per square metre is actually lower than average. Given the size and type, the rent is in line with the market.
Energy label E is the fifth-highest label on the scale from A to G. It means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity costs compared to a home with a better label. The exact costs depend on your usage and energy prices.
Residents describe it as a quiet neighbourhood suitable for families. There are primary schools within walking distance and a mix of owner-occupied and rental homes. Some mention a dangerous road with speeding cars and litter from torn green bags, but overall it is seen as improving.
Albert Heijn is 443 m away and Lidl is 511 m away, both within a short walk. For a wider selection, Jumbo is about 5.8 km away. Daily groceries are easily covered by the nearby supermarkets.
The nearest train station is 14.4 km away, so public transport by train requires a drive or bus ride. The area is more car-dependent.
The listing does not mention whether the house is furnished or unfurnished.

How residents experience their municipality
lived here for 45 years, always a very nice neighbourhood but since many new people, no contact at all anymore, they all think only of themselves, also nothing for the elderly, children have to look for everything far away, transport is hopeless too
Auto-translated to English by AII moved here almost 11 years ago and I really feel at home here, everyone cares about each other and the roads are cleaned here every day with a street sweeper. There is a beautiful green environment here, there is plenty of housing available and there is enough education here.

Auto-translated to English by AISimple village life with peace and cosiness. It lies between the flatlands and away from big cities. Accessibility is therefore not necessarily optimal and the number of facilities is limited.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet - Variety of residents - Safe - no heavy traffic - good accessibility. Public transport could be better for the elderly.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy neighbourhood. Nice neighbours who are often there for each other. People also regularly have a chat with each other. The municipality could only do better with the greenery. A green neighbourhood is nice, provided it is well maintained. I think the municipality can do that better.
