Living in Kloosterblokje, Moerdijk
Kloosterblokje is located right next to the fortified town of Willemstad, but feels different from the historic centre. While Willemstad revolves around tourism, hospitality and the protected moat, Kloosterblokje is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood with a village character. The streets are spacious, there are many detached houses with private driveways and gardens, and traffic is limited. You don't live here in a busy centre, but neither are you in the middle of nowhere.
The housing stock largely dates from the 1970s and 1980s, with a mix of bungalows and semi-detached houses. Newer homes have also been added along the edges of the neighbourhood. The homes are generally well-maintained, which is partly explained by the relatively high income level: the average disposable income per household is €46,500, well above the municipal average of €37,300.
Facilities in the immediate vicinity are limited, but that suits the scale of the neighbourhood. For daily shopping, you can quickly drive to Willemstad or Zevenbergen. Children attend the primary school in Willemstad, within walking distance via the dyke. The fortifications and the Hollandsch Diep are literally around the corner, making the neighbourhood particularly attractive for people who enjoy water, walking and cycling. The recreational area around the harbour of Willemstad can be reached within minutes.
Accessibility by car is good: via the N286 you are quickly on the A29 towards Rotterdam or Bergen op Zoom. Public transport is limited; there is a bus service, but for daily commuting you are almost entirely dependent on the car. There is no station in the immediate vicinity; the nearest station is Roosendaal or Dordrecht, depending on the direction.
Residents particularly appreciate the peace, space and location near the water. One resident writes: "Living here feels like being on holiday all the time; the harbour and the fortification wall are a five-minute walk away, yet you have all the space around you." Criticisms usually concern the limited public transport connections and the fact that you need a car for almost everything.
