Love Alphen

I grew up there and have always been satisfied. I would never want to leave and have little to complain about.

Cosy and with a nice atmosphere

You have the city centre close by, you can easily get there, and you have nice pavements everywhere next to the road that are clean and usually don't have big bumps in them. You also have the Rijnstroompark where you can have a nice walk or play for small children, and there are trees next to the road, which is also nature, and several playgrounds in the neighbourhood.

Lovely neighbourhood

Lots of play space for children. Contact with each other But regularly until very late young people hanging around in the playground. Primary school around the corner. City centre within walking distance. All secondary schools within max 15 minutes by bike. Many dog owners, but almost everyone cleans up their dog's mess
