Living in Steenbergen-Centrum: village character with all amenities within easy reach

Steenbergen-Centrum is the beating heart of the municipality and feels like a compact, lively village centre. Here you will find a mix of historic buildings around the Markt and the Sint-Gummaruskerk, post-war terraced houses in the surrounding streets, and more recent new-build developments such as modern apartment complexes. This variety in housing types ensures a diverse population composition: from young starters to older single people. The largest age group is 65-plus (1,265 residents), which is reflected in the quiet, friendly street scene during the day.

Resident Yvonne Mens, who has lived there since April 2024, describes it as follows: "It's nice living with residents of all ages, a realistic reflection of society. Amenities are easily accessible, on foot, by bike or by car." These amenities score a perfect 10 in the resident rating. And rightly so: along the Kaaistraat and on the Markt you will find supermarkets (Albert Heijn, Lidl), drugstores, a library, GPs and various catering establishments. Primary school De Nobelaer and secondary school Het Mollerlyceum are within cycling distance.

In terms of green space, the centre has surprisingly much to offer. The Gummaruspark and the canals around the old centre provide space for a walk or a run. Residents rate the greenery an 8 out of 10. Accessibility scores a 7: Steenbergen has its own bus connection to Bergen op Zoom and Roosendaal, where you can transfer to the train. By car, you can quickly reach the Randstad or Antwerp via the A4 and A29. One caveat: the through road through the centre (Franseweg/Westdam) is busy, something Yvonne also mentions as a point of attention in her "modern living on a busy through road".

Compared to adjacent neighbourhoods such as Steenbergen-Noord and Steenbergen-Zuid, the centre offers the most amenities within walking distance, but also more traffic and less space per home. If you are looking for more peace and quiet, you could also consider the smaller Welberg or the outlying areas. On the neighbourhood page of Steenbergen-Centrum you can read all resident reviews and find detailed neighbourhood scores per category.
