Living in Sterrebos, Tiel
Sterrebos is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the west side of Tiel. The name says it all: green is central here. The neighbourhood was largely built in the 1980s and 1990s and consists mainly of single-family homes, with spacious gardens, wide streets and many trees along the roads. It feels orderly, not anonymous. Resident Maiko describes it aptly: "I've lived here for 5 years now, everyone knows each other. Reliable neighbourhood, lots of children, close-knit community." That image matches what you see when you cycle through: children on the street, neighbours stopping for a chat.
The neighbourhood scores high on accessibility (9.5 out of 10) and rightly so. The centre of Tiel can be reached by bike in about ten minutes. By car, via the N834 you quickly connect to the A15, which takes you towards Rotterdam or Arnhem. Bus connections run via the nearby main roads. Tiel railway station is a few minutes' bike ride away, with connections towards Utrecht and Geldermalsen.
For daily shopping, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood. A supermarket is within a short distance, as are primary schools that are easily accessible for families with young children.

Sports clubs and recreational facilities can be found in the wider centre of Tiel, which connects well to the neighbourhood.
