Quiet, safe and self-contained: how residents experience Ittersum

On Buurtje.nl, residents give Ittersum a score of 8.0 out of 10. That is a solid score, but when you look at the details, one thing stands out: safety scores highest at 8.8, while sense of community gets the lowest sub-score at 7.3. This picture is exactly reflected in the reviews. Resident Thijs Visser writes: "My experience is that my neighbourhood is generally very safe and good. People are friendly but not really connected to each other." And A. Arts calls it "quiet" but misses social contact with neighbours: "Everyone keeps to themselves." So it is a neighbourhood where you can live comfortably and undisturbed, but you won't automatically end up at the neighbours' kitchen table.

Practically speaking, Ittersum has a lot to offer. Shops are within walking distance (resident Alien confirms this), and accessibility scores an 8.5. The neighbourhood is located on the west side of Zwolle, with good connections to the A28 and bus routes to the centre and station. Greenery scores an 8.3, and you can feel it: there are spacious parks and green edges, especially in neighbourhoods like Ittersumerlanden and Gerenlanden. The older parts around Oud-Ittersum have a more village-like character, while the newer neighbourhoods like Gerenbroek are designed more modern and sleek.

One thing several residents mention: the street layout can be confusing. Snoetje appelsap describes it as "a bit of a maze" for visitors. This is typical of the 1980s and 1990s layout with many dead-end streets and courtyards. Great for peace and safety (children playing in the street), less convenient when you order pizza.

Renting in Ittersum: for whom, and for whom not?
