Mooi, gezellig, perfect

Mooiste buurt van Heusden. Ben blij om hier te mogen wonen. Kei aardige mensen, kei gezellige winkels en de vliedberg heeft veel karakter. Het is altijd mooi om buiten te zijn in het mooie vliedberg.

Great neighbourhood in a lovely village

Nice neighbourhood where everyone respects each other and neighbours help each other when needed. All kinds of amenities are nearby: shops, church, school, town hall. On the edge of the village, so also straight into nature and the countryside for walking and cycling. And just 6 minutes by car from Den Bosch, which is also ideal. The municipality cleans very regularly (sweeper truck), there is no mess in the neighbourhood. There is enough social control without being too much in each other's business.

Standard village experience

Everything is fine here. All amenities are on one square, which is usually convenient, but it also makes it very busy there, especially with parking. Additionally, people in the neighbourhood usually drive way too fast. The neighbourhood itself is good, with plenty of things for young children as well.

antisocial

People are antisocial, cars constantly park on the bend which is bloody annoying, people drive over the grass, fatbikes swerving down the middle of the road with phone in hand, and so on and so forth.
