Proud to live here!

I think it's a cosy, snug neighbourhood where we quickly make connections with each other! Nice schools and fun playgrounds for the kids! Also, the supermarket was renovated a while ago, which has really improved it! :) I must say it's a shame that some people in the neighbourhood find it so important to meddle and complain, which spoils the atmosphere among us!

Spacious and quiet

The neighbourhood is very spacious with lots of greenery. However, this means few facilities in Meteren; for that you have to go to Geldermalsen. There are many dangerous car/bicycle intersections.
