Living in Dinxperlo Centrum/Oost, Aalten
Dinxperlo Centrum/Oost is the heart of a border village that has its own pace. The neighbourhood has a distinct village character: wide streets, predominantly post-war and 1970s buildings, and a mix of owner-occupied and rental homes that sit side by side without feeling forced. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for architectural highlights, but it is a neighbourhood that works. People know each other, there is social cohesion, and you can feel it.
The central location in Dinxperlo means that daily shopping is well taken care of. In and directly around the centre, you will find supermarkets, a pharmacy, GPs and a number of local shops on and around the Varsseveldseweg and the Raadhuisstraat. For more extensive shopping or specialist facilities, many residents travel to Aalten or nearby Winterswijk, both about ten to fifteen minutes away by car. Dinxperlo also has a special trump card: the direct border with Germany. The German supermarkets and petrol stations in Suderwick are literally within walking distance, which residents cite as a practical advantage.

Our neighbourhood is a mix of streets with rental and owner-occupied homes. With plenty of green spaces. We really enjoy living here in our own home, on a nice street, although I must note that the streets with social housing are changing somewhat; nowadays many people from outside the village come to live there, which unfortunately does not exactly increase the feeling of safety. Still, I think that compared to many other neighbourhoods in the Netherlands, we live here quietly and relatively safely, with most amenities within reasonable distance.
