Living in Stationsbuurt, Capelle aan den IJssel

Stationsbuurt is one of the smallest neighbourhoods within the Schenkel district, with about 235 residents. This small-scale character is immediately what defines the neighbourhood: it is not an anonymous residential area, but a place where people know each other. The location around and near Capelle aan den IJssel station gives the neighbourhood a mixed character. You have the tranquillity of a residential area, but the bustle of the station and its associated infrastructure is never far away.

In terms of buildings, you will find a mix of homes from the post-war period and later additions. The homes are generally more spacious than in surrounding neighbourhoods, which partly explains the higher WOZ value. Streets such as the area around Capelseweg and the station district give the neighbourhood a recognisable face: through traffic, but also quiet side streets with greenery.

As for amenities, the location is favourable. Koperwiek shopping centre, one of the larger shopping centres in Capelle aan den IJssel, is within cycling distance. For daily groceries, there are supermarkets in the immediate vicinity. Primary schools and childcare are accessible within the neighbourhood and adjacent districts. Sports clubs and recreational opportunities can be found along the Hollandsche IJssel, which flows a short distance away.

Residents particularly appreciate the neighbourhood for its location and the tranquillity you still find there despite the proximity of the station. On the neighbourhood page of Stationsbuurt you can read what residents specifically think. One resident writes: "You actually live very centrally here, but the street itself is quiet. That is a combination you don't find everywhere." Criticisms that come up are parking pressure around the station and through traffic on the main roads. Those looking for a similar atmosphere but a different price range can also look at the Florabuurt or the Molenbuurt, both also part of the Schenkel district. For a greener and more family-oriented alternative, Klaverweide and 's-Gravenpark are worth a look.
