Living in Maaspoort: family neighbourhood with character on the Maas
Maaspoort lies north of the centre of Den Bosch, nestled between the Maas and the A2. The neighbourhood was built from the 1980s onwards and therefore has a fairly uniform, spacious street scene with plenty of greenery and water. That may sound standard, but what makes Maaspoort special is how the different districts each have their own atmosphere. In Maasvallei, many families live in spacious single-family homes, while De Italiaanse buurt is known for its recognisable architecture with Italian-sounding street names. In Het Zilverpark you will find newer homes that are also suitable for seniors.
Residents on Buurtje.nl give Maaspoort an 8.9 out of 10. Notable are the high scores for safety (9.0), accessibility (9.0) and amenities (9.0). Resident Chiel from Maasvallei sums it up succinctly: "Super goed." Housing even gets a 10. The only caveat is the score for beauty (7.0), and honestly, you understand that when you cycle through the neighbourhood: the architecture is functional but not particularly attractive. More reviews and detailed neighbourhood data can be found on the Maaspoort page.

Sportpark De Schutskamp offers space for football club BVV and tennis club Maaspoort. The Engelermeer, within walking distance of the northern districts, is a popular spot for swimming and walking.

That station gives you fast train connections to, among others, Utrecht (30 minutes) and Amsterdam. By bike, you are in the historic city centre in ten minutes. The municipality of Den Bosch is also investing in better cycling routes to the centre.
Does Maaspoort suit you as a buyer?
