quiet neighbourhood

it is in principle close to the city, but still 10 km by bike. If you have to cycle every day, it is a bit far.

No future for the youth

It's a small village but due to the new housing estates the local identity has disappeared. Also, almost all homes are for sale and then for 65+, which means that today's youth cannot stay living there and will have to leave.

Decent neighbourhood in a decent and pleasant village

Groningen easily accessible with bus line 4, which always runs every half hour, during peak hours even every 15 or 10 minutes. It is at least a 10-minute drive to the nearest motorway. Generally a nice green, clean, safe environment. Roden is a close-knit village with many decent people and few antisocial types. Nice houses and something for everyone, from starters to seniors. Plenty of primary education with about 8 or 9 primary schools in Roden and Nieuw-Roden. Also VMBO at all levels. For HAVO and VWO you have to cycle 15/20 minutes to Leek, which is also fine. For the rest, all facilities you would expect in a large village are present, many supermarkets, plenty of restaurants, etc.

A nice neighbourhood with a strong sense of community.

The plus point is that I live right in the centre. The downside is that the houses are very noisy.

Liveable and green

Positive is the range of hospitality and nature. A lot is organised (events) and due to the availability of campsites, hotels and holiday homes, it is a tourist village. Negative is the accessibility of public transport. Only 1 bus per hour that goes to Assen or Roden. This forces you to take the car. And that is point two that is negative, speeders. Speeders in the form of large agricultural vehicles driving through the streets at high speed. And also cars that regularly drive too fast.
