The core has a distinct identity, partly due to the regional architecture along the Gemeenteweg, the agricultural background, and the close-knit community.

The latter is relative: a long-term resident aptly describes it as "nice and quiet, everyone has their own spot but there's always someone open for a chat." That same resident has lived there his entire life and, by his own account, has never experienced anything bad. Newcomers, including those who do not speak Dutch, are, according to him, welcomed into the neighbourhood. Another reviewer simply calls it "fine," but adds that waste management in the green corners could be better. Honest and recognisable.

Auto-translated to English by AIGood, less rubbish in the bushes
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here my whole life, never really experienced anything bad or strange. It's really very quiet and especially on Sundays hahaha. The neighbours are very friendly and respectful. Even if someone new comes, (and even if they don't speak Dutch etc.) they still make sure to keep in touch and help where needed. All because they want the best for everyone. The houses are certainly not bad either, a good landlord who maintains everything very well and a nice place. There are plenty of amenities too, 5 supermarkets, 2/3 bakeries, 2 drugstores and so on! For a village there is more than enough of what you need and all close together in the centre.
