Great neighbourhood in a lovely village

Nice neighbourhood where everyone respects each other and neighbours help each other when needed. All kinds of amenities are nearby: shops, church, school, town hall. On the edge of the village, so also straight into nature and the countryside for walking and cycling. And just 6 minutes by car from Den Bosch, which is also ideal. The municipality cleans very regularly (sweeper truck), there is no mess in the neighbourhood. There is enough social control without being too much in each other's business.

Houses are being renovated and insulated on the outside, but residents remain the same, poor or no maintenance of front and back gardens. No waste enforcement.
