Nice place to live

Surrounded by nature but still all amenities within walking distance, also a station nearby. Downside: due to roadworks, always having to take detours and the closure of several main roads at the same time.

Peace and nature

It's a village on a dike, with a canal and lots of nature around. In the village itself there are some bushes here and there, but also houses in between.

Good neighbourhood

Neighbourhood is cosy and good. People are a bit more to themselves but everyone knows each other well. Few amenities, because it's outside the city.
