Living in Zuidoost, Duiven

Zuidoost is a quiet residential neighbourhood on the southeastern edge of Duiven, a municipality in the Liemers region in the province of Gelderland. The neighbourhood has a predominantly green and tranquil character, with mainly ground-floor single-family homes from the 1970s and 1980s, supplemented by a limited number of apartments. The streetscape is orderly and green, with spacious front gardens and parks between the residential streets. This is not a bustling urban neighbourhood, but a place where peace and quiet prevail.

The residents are on average somewhat older: the largest age group consists of 45- to 65-year-olds, followed by seniors aged 65 and over. Almost half of the households are married, and the proportion of households without children is relatively large. This colours the character of the neighbourhood: it is quiet during the day, there is little nuisance, and social cohesion seems good. Rianne van Munster sums it up succinctly: "Very quiet and the bus around the corner."

Zuidoost is a residential neighbourhood without many of its own facilities, but the proximity of Duiven's centre makes this less of an issue.

Does renting in Zuidoost suit you?

Zuidoost particularly appeals to people seeking peace and quiet and who have no need for a lively urban environment. Families with school-age children can do well here thanks to the presence of primary education in the neighbourhood and the relatively safe living environment. (Older) couples without children and seniors also feel at home here, given the demographic composition. Starters looking for an affordable rental home can find it here through the social housing sector, but should take waiting lists into account. In the free sector, supply is limited: on average, only a handful of homes are rented out per year. So respond quickly if you see a home for rent. Make sure your documents are in order: payslips, employer's statement and a valid ID. Also register with a housing association for social housing via the municipality of Duiven. If renting proves too expensive or scarce, it is worth also checking the range of homes for sale in Zuidoost.
