Neighbourhood Committee Hellenbeekstraat

Cosy neighbourhood, looks out for each other, a chat or a beer is always welcome. Accessibility in terms of shopping centre is also great. Our neighbourhood committee BC Hellenbeek regularly organises something like a neighbourhood BBQ or bouncy castles for the children. Playground and football pitch right on the doorstep, also supervised to ensure no loitering youth or animals are there. In short, a decent neighbourhood.

Beautiful neighbourhood with a quiet environment, surrounded by nature and people who always have a smile on their face

I've been living here for about 3 years now and it's very much to my liking. Our place where we live is beautifully surrounded by the forest, but not too remote. That's nice. The people who also live here almost never walk past you without a greeting or a smile. That gives a good feeling.
