Krimpen aan den IJssel: village-like and involved, but not exciting enough for everyone
On the neighbourhood page of Krimpen aan den IJssel, residents give the village an 8.6 out of 10, based on 12 reviews. Accessibility (9.0) and green spaces (9.0) score notably high. That's not surprising when you walk around here: along the IJssel there are lovely running routes, and by bike you are within a few minutes of shops, schools and GPs. Resident Alicia (9.4/10) writes: "I've lived here since I was five and in my opinion this is a super cosy neighbourhood with almost only very friendly people who really involve you in the community." Jennifer, who has only lived there for six months, confirms that: neighbours help each other, you can always borrow something, and if you want to be left alone, everyone respects that.
Krimpen has two shopping centres and, scattered across the village, enough individual shops, a pharmacy and schools. Resident Carolien specifically mentions that there are "enough shops, schools and pharmacies" and that everything is easily accessible. There are many playgrounds for children, which fits with the fact that households with children form the largest group (4,700 households). The evening shop is a nice addition if you need something in the evening. Yet Krimpen is not equally attractive to everyone. Fien (7.6/10) is honest: "A bit boring for young people, but you have everything you need." In another review she even calls it "a bit of a dull village", although she adds that the supermarkets are a five-minute bike ride away. Carolien notes that the feeling of safety has decreased somewhat in recent years, although the safety score is still 8.5.
In terms of neighbourhoods, there are clear differences. In Oud Krimpen you are close to the bridge and the IJssel, which isak describes as a "nice bustling neighbourhood near the bridge." The newer Langeland attracts families due to its more spacious layout, while Kortland-Noord and Kortland-Zuid are more centrally located relative to the shopping centres. Via the municipal website you can find more information about local facilities and events.

beautiful neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AINeat houses, everything is generally well maintained, shops, schools, pharmacy etc. are plentiful and easily accessible. There are many places for children to play. Unfortunately, the feeling of safety has been decreasing for me in recent years.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a decent neighbourhood. A bit boring for young people, but you have everything you need, the basics are there. Schools, GP, pharmacy, shops. I personally really like the late-night shop. If you've forgotten something, which can happen, you still have that shop that's open until late, super handy. The residents here are mostly middle-aged, elderly, and religious people. Which makes the atmosphere a bit grey, I think. I prefer a smaller village, but here you are close to Rotterdam.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here since I was five and in my opinion this is a super cosy neighbourhood with almost only very friendly people who really involve you in the community. Also, everything is within walking distance or even easier by bike, which is very nice if you want to use the car less or don't have a car. There are always fun activities organised during holidays that bring the community together. In terms of education, there is a lot on offer with several primary schools in the area and the secondary school is called Krimpenerwaardcollege, but you could also go to two other secondary schools that are within cycling distance. There are several parks in the area and a large meadow, so if you like nature that's super nice. All in all, it's a very good neighbourhood and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a house to take a look here.
Auto-translated to English by AII've only just moved here, but my impression is: quiet and beautiful. It's a bit of a sleepy village, but supermarkets are a 5-minute bike ride away, which is very nice. In Krimpen there are two shopping centres, which I think is well organised. In addition, there are also individual shops here and there. Running opportunities could be better, especially in the dark and as a girl. For example, it's a few minutes' run before you reach an uninhabited area in a forest where you can run freely without cars, but in the evening there are no lights there. Which is a shame, because running in a neighbourhood with only cars and cyclists and other road users, and on uneven roads with loose stones, is not pleasant at all. For the rest, I live on a nice street in a very nice house with my parents.
Auto-translated to English by AII've only lived here for half a year and it's a fantastic neighbourhood. Neighbours keep in touch and help each other when needed. You can always come and borrow something, and you're offered help if things aren't going well. If you don't feel like talking, they don't think it's strange and leave you alone. In short, a very pleasant neighbourhood to live together in.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a neighbourhood with many people, many people also cycle by and leave a lot of litter behind. The patch of grass on my street is no longer grass but a bush of shrubs that damage cars, and everyone drives too fast in my neighbourhood.
