It's a quiet neighbourhood. I live on the edge of Driebergen, on a street with almost only farms, and it's very quiet. Furthermore, the neighbourhood is not involved with each other and there is hardly any contact with the neighbours or the neighbourhood. I've been living here for 4 years now and I haven't managed to make any friends in Driebergen, which is a shame. Otherwise, it's clean and tidy, and there is never any rubbish or things on the street.

Unfortunately, they throw their scavenged wrappers on the ground while there's a bin within two steps. Otherwise, great place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AII grew up here as a child, Driebergen will always have a place in my heart. Because there were (then fewer) children, my sister and I always went out exploring and discovered the nicest things together. Since Driebergen is located in a wooded area, there is a lot to discover. The village festivals are also getting better and better! Last year there was a Christmas market and it felt so cosy and connected. We live close to everything, nice and close to shops, forest, Utrecht, it's just a shame that few activities are organised for children. Driebergen also has no secondary schools, but that's not a problem. In recent years I have come to appreciate Driebergen more! Like learning more about the history of the village and the architecture, for example. What I also find interesting is that they now organise all sorts of things on Liberation Day so we can learn more about Driebergen. A very nice neighbourhood! As a child I always felt safe, in recent years a bit less so, especially in the evenings, because of loitering youths. As I said before, Driebergen is very green, in most streets you see shrubs, trees, flowers, plants everywhere, especially now in spring it makes me very happy!
Auto-translated to English by AII consider Driebergen a very safe and welcoming village. It is a good and quiet environment for young and old, there are no MBO options in Driebergen itself but you are quickly in Utrecht and beyond. There is a cosy village with a market, you really find the village customs in Driebergen. I have been living there for 6 years now, which is different from the average person but I certainly enjoy it. There are many parks and pieces of forest with a lot of history for everyone, so.

Auto-translated to English by AIDriebergen is a nice and quiet neighbourhood where I usually feel at ease. It is a safe place with lots of greenery and nature to enjoy, which creates a relaxed atmosphere. The amenities are reasonably good, but there isn't much to do for children and young people, which can sometimes be a drawback. The neighbourhood looks neat and well-maintained, and most things are easily accessible; you're also close to Utrecht, which is very convenient. As for the community: there is a sense of cohesion, but it's not very close-knit; people mostly live their own lives. Recently there was a Christmas market, which I really enjoyed! Overall, it's a good place to live, especially if you like peace and nature.
Auto-translated to English by AIAlways cheerful and friendly people! There are good facilities in the neighbourhood. The nature is beautiful and it's also reasonably safe. I have very fond childhood memories of this neighbourhood!!
