How residents experience their district
It is my birthplace and I have experienced all the ins and outs of the village. Four years ago, the jackpot of the Postcode Lottery fell in Glimmen. For me, it was much less fun at that time because I was in hospital with serious liver problems, even at New Year's I was still there after two cardiac arrests, luckily resuscitated in time. Then such a lottery prize becomes a side issue; I had four tickets!!!?. But when you almost die, money is not an option. Now more about Glimmen: it is a water extraction area for Groningen, and our tap water comes from the little river Drentse A and groundwater that is pumped up. Glimmen is also historically important; there are stories about Bommenberend staying in a castle and besieging Groningen in the year 1700 or 1800. In Glimmen, there is still a castle in the Drentse A area. Best regards, Jan Jager
Auto-translated to English by AIA 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.
Auto-translated to English by AIGlimmen is a leafy village with lots of nature and forest. Many detached houses and a wide choice of associations and clubs. The location is also ideal relative to motorways and Groningen. Haren is a cosy village with a wide variety of shops. Especially in summer some nuisance from air traffic, but not too dominant.

Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a shopping centre opposite here so I always have something to see and never get bored
Auto-translated to English by AIVery beautiful neighbourhood in Groningen. Lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops. What is unpleasant is that there is often rubbish next to the bins. Furthermore, the neighbourhood has many nice small parks and you are within no time in a quiet natural environment where you can enjoy walking, running, cycling etc. All in all, this neighbourhood is perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers.
