Living in Reijershove, Middelburg

Reijershove is located in the southern part of Middelburg and has the character of a quiet, green residential neighbourhood developed in the 1980s and 1990s. The streets are wide, there is relatively much public green space, and the buildings consist largely of semi-detached and detached houses, supplemented by terraced houses. It is a neighbourhood that does not stand out for busy activity or hospitality, but rather for the peace and space that residents describe as the core of the living pleasure here.

In terms of amenities, Reijershove is well-equipped for daily life. Within cycling distance are a supermarket and small-scale shopping facilities on the Kanaalweg and in the nearby centre of Middelburg.

The neighbourhood mainly attracts families and people in the 45 to 65 age group, which explains the quiet, established atmosphere.
