Living in 't Ven West, Meierijstad
't Ven West is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the western side of Veghel, with a clear family character. The streets are wide, there is plenty of greenery between the homes, and traffic does not cut through. Anyone coming from a busy city or a compact urban district will immediately notice the difference: here there is space. The neighbourhood consists largely of single-family homes, predominantly semi-detached and detached houses from the 1980s and 1990s, with occasional newer infill. Terraced houses are also present, but they are in the minority.
The population composition matches that picture. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years, but there are also relatively many families with children. You notice that in the neighbourhood itself: bicycles in front gardens, basketball hoops on driveways, and children playing in the street after school. The labour participation rate is high at 73%, giving the neighbourhood an active, working character.
For daily errands, you hardly need to leave 't Ven West. The centre of Veghel is a short bike ride away, with supermarkets, shops, and eateries. Within the neighbourhood itself, primary schools are accessible, and Veghel is well-provided for secondary education. Sports clubs in the area offer opportunities for football, tennis, and swimming. The Veghels Kanaal and the green zones on the edge of the neighbourhood are popular walking and cycling routes.

Residents most appreciate the peace and space. A frequently heard sentiment is: "Here you really live, not just sleep." The social cohesion on the streets is remarkably good for a neighbourhood of this size. Criticism sometimes focuses on the limited walking distance to shops and the public transport that requires a bit more planning for some destinations.
