A typically cosy green neighbourhood

Everyone smiles at each other, but many small children are starting to arrive who make a racket.

Old-fashioned peace and quiet

A wonderfully quiet neighbourhood where people are friendly to each other, but don't constantly drop in on one another. You have shops for daily necessities around the corner, a large park for walking or exercising, letting the dog run, and letting the owners strike up a conversation. By bike you can quickly go in all directions through back streets; through traffic goes far around the neighbourhood. Sports fields are within walking distance. There is hardly any nuisance from others. The neighbourhood is well maintained by both residents and the municipality. Is the neighbourhood really that perfect? Yes! Of course there is a sourpuss here and there, but they hardly get the chance to vent their venom. Where in the Netherlands do you find a street-strip-o-theek? Here in De Zoom. Strip albums, a cupboard full to get people off their phones and reading again. A neighbourhood where people still greet each other and smile at each other.
