Chill neighbourhood

I've lived here for 10 years and I don't have many problems with the neighbourhood. I don't have much contact with the other residents but I'm still always invited to street parties and stuff.

Great neighbourhood!

Het Soesterkwartier, but especially Rivierenwijk-Oost, is a great neighbourhood to live in! Only friendly neighbours who are always there for you. There is quite a lot of green in the neighbourhood, take for example the beautiful green belt. And with the renovation plans for the Noordewierweg, the heart of the neighbourhood, it will become even better. Accessibility is fine, you can get into the neighbourhood quickly, getting out a bit less quickly ;) You can be in the city centre or at the station in a few minutes, and in the neighbourhood itself you have all the facilities you need. Nice and good primary schools for every taste, Dalton education, regular or for highly gifted children. Secondary schools are (almost) all within half an hour's bike ride. And the 1930s houses complete it all.
