Living in Vredehof Zuid, Vlissingen

Vredehof Zuid is a quiet, green neighbourhood on the southern edge of Vlissingen, built up in the 1960s and 1970s. The streets are spacious, there are many trees, and the housing stock mainly consists of semi-detached and detached houses, interspersed with a few terraced houses. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for architectural features, but rather for the space and tranquillity you find there. The gardens are often large and well-maintained, contributing to the green character.

The population composition is striking: more than 60% of residents are aged 65 or older. You notice this in the neighbourhood. It is quiet during the day, most residents know each other, and there is a certain settled calm. Young families or people between 25 and 45 are clearly in the minority. Those seeking hustle and bustle should look elsewhere. Those who want peace, space, and a stable living environment will quickly feel at home here.

One resident describes the neighbourhood as follows: "You can really unwind here. The streets are wide, the neighbours are friendly, and in the evening you only hear the birds."
