Venlo without the crowds.

I experience a lot of safety here. Never felt like I had to watch out for my safety and the roads are nicely built. I rarely experience a car driving too fast here and I never hear anything bad from neighbours about burglaries or theft. You can easily chat with people on the street that you see often because they walk their dogs, and I was even helped once with my bike when the chain came off. It is generally clean, only sometimes there are extra bags of rubbish and furniture by the containers. Houses are fine, nothing to complain about. They all look neat inside and out. Internet works well, fibre optic and electricity never go out. There are many playgrounds. Walking opportunities along the Maas and several supermarkets within walking distance. Also several bus stops and a fitness centre. You can easily get there on foot, by bike or by car. There is only a secondary school in the neighbourhood.

Cosy and nice

The neighbourhood has a favourable location relative to the city, nature and amenities. The immediate neighbours are lovely. There is a lot of diversity in this neighbourhood, but it goes well together. Occasionally there is theft in the neighbourhood, which reduces safety. There is a staircase down to walk to the Maas and towards the city. I enjoy living here!
