We know most of the people who live in our neighbourhood. We greet each other when we meet. During festivities, almost all of us are present. The beautiful market with its stately houses and the large square are very cosy when the terraces are set out in summer. We have many activities for outsiders too. And the Biesbosch is nearby. In short, I love my little town.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a quiet neighbourhood where little happens. There is only 1 supermarket, and the market that was once very lively is now very quiet. You don't come here for the liveliness anymore.. a quiet neighbourhood though. Most neighbours are also very polite and always have a chat. In Geertruidenberg there are many anti-squat buildings, but this doesn't help with housing; in Raamsdonksveer, also municipality of Geertruidenberg, they are more involved with that. Facilities are insufficient, housing is being worked on in the municipality of Geertruidenberg.
