Living in Brandevoort: Helmond's village-within-the-city
Brandevoort was built as a kind of historic-looking town, complete with canals, squares and facades reminiscent of a Brabant fortified village. That may sound like a theme park, but residents experience it differently. On Buurtje.nl, the neighbourhood scores 9.0 out of 10 based on resident reviews. Resident Dylan sums it up succinctly: "The appearance of the neighbourhood is beautiful, lots of variety, events that the whole neighbourhood comes out for, like Dickens Night. Always clean and tidy." That Dickens Night on the central square of De Veste has become a household name in the region and attracts thousands of visitors annually.
In terms of amenities, Brandevoort is reasonably self-sufficient. In the heart of the neighbourhood there is a Jumbo supermarket and there are various small shops and eateries around the Marktplein. For larger grocery shopping or retail therapy, you go to the centre of Helmond or to the Scheepsvonderspark shopping centre. Children can attend primary schools such as De Fonkel and De Regenboog. The partial score for education is notably high at 9.5. The neighbourhood Stepekolk on the south side borders directly on the green countryside towards Mierlo, which resident Wilbert Linders describes as a neighbourhood "with potential and a sense of community among residents, conveniently located near nature." The Groene Peelvallei and the Bundertje are within walking distance.

As a committed resident of Helmond, I see Stepekolk (Brandevoort) as a neighbourhood with potential, but also with clear points for attention. The neighbourhood has strong points: there is a sense of togetherness among residents, the location is favourable relative to amenities and nature, and there are nice grassroots initiatives. At the same time, there are also concerns. The public space is not always well maintained; litter, green management and traffic safety could be better. Some parts of the neighbourhood therefore feel more unsafe than necessary. What stands out is that young people sometimes have little to do, which can lead to nuisance or boredom. More low-threshold meeting places, sports and cultural activities would benefit the neighbourhood. There should also be more attention to social connection: how do we ensure that neighbours get to know each other and feel jointly responsible for their neighbourhood? The housing stock in Stepekolk is mixed. Moreover, residents are concerned about the affordability of housing and energy costs. Here lie opportunities for the municipality and housing associations to invest together with residents in a future-oriented way. Finally: Stepekolk (Brandevoort) is a neighbourhood with a heart. People live there with stories, with resilience and with love for their street. If the municipality and authorities truly listen and let residents think along and participate, Stepekolk can be/become an example neighbourhood of how social strength and physical liveability go hand in hand.
