The average rental home in the free sector has about 80 square metres.

Lively but with rough edges: how residents experience Ede-Veldhuizen
Residents of Ede-Veldhuizen give their neighbourhood a 7.1 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl, based on six reviews. That is a decent score, but behind that average lie diverse experiences. What stands out: education scores highest with 8.4, and accessibility also gets a solid 8.0. The scores for green spaces (6.2) and sense of community (6.5) are somewhat lower.
The neighbourhood clearly has two faces. Resident Donné writes: "Nice, lived here my whole life, never really had any complaints. Safe, lots of playgrounds for children nearby." That view is shared by Thomacx, who calls the neighbourhood "lively" and appreciates the mix of old and young residents. But there are also less positive voices. Marit, who lives in one of the flats, complains about residents urinating and smoking weed in the stairwell: "That way it's not a pleasant living environment." And several residents mention nuisance from speeding cars on roads like the Hogerhorst, and loitering youths using drugs in the park. Resident Dave notes that you live here "for a not too high price compared to other neighbourhoods", but that the traffic situation could be better.

Accessibility is a strong point: Ede-Wageningen station is easily reachable, and via the A12 and A30 you are quickly on the motorway. Amenities such as supermarkets and schools are plentiful, which also explains the high score for education.

I live in a flat and of course you have multiple cultures and different people, but the people here are not clean; they urinate in the flat, spit, and smoke weed. I think more attention should be paid to this because this way it's not a pleasant living environment.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy neighbourhood with both many old and young people. Lots of social cohesion.
Auto-translated to English by AINice, lived here my whole life, never really had any complaints actually, safe, lots of playgrounds for children in the neighbourhood. Also, everything looks beautiful and cosy!!!
Auto-translated to English by AIUnfortunately, like others, we experience that the road we live on is regularly used as a racetrack for scooters and sometimes cars. This causes noise pollution, but also, with a small child living right on this road, it's not always pleasant. Turn the Hogerhorst into one long cycle street with 'Cars as Guests' and add at least 2 more speed bumps. What I also miss are nice trendy coffee bars within walking distance. That would also be fine in the Kernhem district. That would liven up the neighbourhood's amenities. What I find positive are the renovated playgrounds in the area. If you live so far from the city centre, it would be nice if more buses ran per hour. It's really scandalously few.
Auto-translated to English by AII have never had bad experiences, all people are reasonably friendly and quick to help, the neighbours are nice but there are also some boys who do drugs in the park
