Accessible and close-knit neighbourhood!

Our neighbourhood is easy to reach by bus and train. You can arrive every half hour. At night, many streets are very dark, but there is a lamppost at every intersection. This gives a safe feeling. Shopping can be done in Nieuwleusen and Dalfsen, and within 15 km also in Zwolle. The best thing about our place is the nature, but certainly also the way residents keep an eye on the surroundings. When a suspicious situation occurs, it is shared with each other to keep others alert. All in all, we are super happy with our neighbourhood and neighbours! Oh yes, there are also many schools. Public and Christian schools, primary and secondary schools are easily accessible by bike (Nieuwleusen) or by public transport.
