Living in Zeggepolder-oost, Drimmelen
Zeggepolder-oost is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the edge of Terheijden, nestled between polder land and the built-up area. The neighbourhood has a distinct character: wide streets, spacious plots and low building density give it a rural feel, while you are still within cycling distance of the village centre. The homes mostly date from the 1980s and 1990s, with a mix of semi-detached and detached houses with gardens. Terraced houses are hardly seen here.
The population composition reveals the character of the neighbourhood: the largest group of residents is between 45 and 65 years old, followed by those aged 65 and over. These are people who have been rooted for some time, with a relatively high income (average €41,500 versus €37,300 in the municipality) and a high level of education (44% highly educated). Families with young children exist but are not the majority. Most households are without children, which partly explains the quiet atmosphere on the streets.
For daily shopping, you rely on the centre of Terheijden, a few minutes away by bike. There you will find a supermarket, a bakery and primary school De Regenboog. For a wider range of shops or secondary schools, Made is the destination, about six kilometres away. Accessibility by car is good: via the N285 you quickly reach Breda (about 20 minutes) and towards Roosendaal. Public transport is limited; there is a bus line via Terheijden, but for commuters a car is almost indispensable. Cyclists appreciate the quiet polder routes towards the Biesbosch.
Residents particularly value the peace and space. One resident describes it as follows: "You really live out here, but without feeling like you're in the middle of nowhere. Terheijden is within cycling distance and Breda is easily reached." Critical notes sometimes concern the limited amenities directly in the neighbourhood and the dependence on the car for larger shopping trips.
