Broekhuizenvorst is a small, quiet village in the north of Limburg, located along the Maas. It has no shopping street, no hustle and bustle, no traffic jams through the village. That is precisely what many residents appreciate here. On the neighbourhood page of Broekhuizenvorst you can read what residents themselves write about their village. A recurring theme in the reviews is the peace and social cohesion: people know each other, there are active clubs, and the surroundings invite you to be outdoors. One resident describes it as: "You don't live here anonymously. If something is wrong, someone will be at your door within a day." Less positive are some residents about the limited facilities and the dependence on the car.

There is a primary school in the village, which is a plus for young families. The village is well equipped for sports: football club BVV Broekhuizenvorst is an active club with youth teams, and the Maas offers opportunities for walking, cycling and water sports.
