Living in De Kooistee: quiet family neighbourhood with good connections

De Kooistee is a neighbourhood you wouldn't quickly compare to a bustling city centre, and that's exactly what many residents find appealing. The largest age group consists of people between 25 and 45, and families with children are the most common household type. You notice this in the atmosphere: it's a neighbourhood where people know each other and where neighbours help each other when needed. Carin, a resident who gives the neighbourhood an 8.1, describes it like this: "Very cosy when something happens, we can help each other if necessary."

In terms of amenities, the picture is mixed. Schools are well represented in and around the neighbourhood, which is also reflected in the high education score of 9.0. Residents mention the proximity of schools as a clear plus for young families. For daily groceries, supermarkets are accessible, although the level of amenities for shops and entertainment is more limited: the amenities score from residents comes out at 5.5.

Public transport is available via bus connections in the area. Green space also scores a 9.5, which fits the character of the neighbourhood: quiet, green and spacious.

The neighbourhood consists of several sub-areas, each with its own character.

It pays to compare per sub-area, because the type of home and price range can vary considerably from street to street. Want to know more about living in De Kooistee?
