Beautiful, green, cosy neighbourhood.

Great. Houses and gardens are beautiful and (with some exceptions) well-maintained. I have regular and pleasant contact with neighbours. Small shopping centre nearby and large shopping centre close by. Also the polder and swimming facilities nearby. Little litter or such on the streets. I feel safe on the streets.

Pleasant living for everyone

In my neighbourhood, as a woman, I feel perfectly fine walking outside. In the past, I could always walk or cycle to school. We also have several supermarkets and drugstores. So we have everything we need within walking distance. I myself live next to the meadows, where you see a lot of greenery and free animals, which I always find beautiful. If I want to live somewhere later, Etten-Leur is really a great option.
