Living in Sinselveld, Venlo
Sinselveld is a down-to-earth, everyday urban neighbourhood in the southern part of Venlo. No striking architecture, no trendy eateries on the corner, but also no hassle. The neighbourhood has a mixed character: terraced houses and porch flats from the 1960s and 1970s stand side by side, with the occasional small mid-terrace house that has been recently renovated. The streets are clear, the gardens are maintained, and it feels ordinary and functional.
The largest age group consists of 25- to 45-year-olds, which is visible in the neighbourhood: young couples, families with children on bikes, people who have just bought their first home. Single-person households form the largest household group (615), which also fits with the relatively high share of social housing. It is a mixed neighbourhood in the true sense of the word.
For daily groceries, you hardly need to leave Sinselveld. Supermarkets are within easy reach in the immediate vicinity, and the shops of the nearby centre of Venlo are within cycling distance. Primary schools and childcare centres are present in the neighbourhood. If you are looking for a park, you can go to the green banks of the Maas, which are relatively close by.
