Rust en ruimte

Voldoende ruimte voor rustige woonomgeving, waarbij we te maken hebben met t merendeel slecht geïsoleerde woningen met gehorige bouw. Groter percentage ouderen ook alleenstaanden welke niet door kunnen stromen naar leeftijdsbestendige woningbouw in eigen dorp of gemeente. Omdat t sociale netwerk belangrijk is met een dorp op afstand van stad, is het openbaar vervoer essentieel. De inkomens liggen gemiddeld lager dus de noodzaak voor betaalbaarheid van woning en zorg is essentieel

Beautiful safe environment

It's so beautiful here, I enjoy my surroundings every day, friendliness also prevails. I maintain a green space in front of my door and I mainly reap praise from the neighbourhood. We clean up mess together. I feel safe and happy
