Buurtje.nl is the largest platform for honest neighbourhood reviews in the Netherlands. Thousands of people search for reviews every month before deciding where they want to live. By reviewing your own neighbourhood, district or municipality you help them make a well-informed choice and give the municipality valuable insight into what matters to residents.
You give a score from 1 to 10 on eight themes, with "not applicable" as an option: safety, community, hygiene, housing, education, nature, amenities and accessibility.
A neighbourhood review is only valuable if the content is accurate. Every review therefore goes through an AI check that assesses respectful language, relevance and the absence of personal names or insults. If your text doesn't pass, you get an explanation straight away and can adjust it.
Your address is not stored and your email address remains private. Your review only shows the name or pseudonym you provide. Writing and reading reviews is and will remain free.
Writing a review takes less than 2 minutes. You go through 5 short steps: location, details, scores, experience and submission.
No. We only use your postcode and house number to automatically find the right neighbourhood. Your exact address is never recorded or shown anywhere.

Before your review goes live, an AI checks whether your text is respectful and relevant and doesn't contain names or insults. This keeps the reviews on Buurtje.nl reliable.
After a successful AI check, your review appears immediately on the page of the relevant neighbourhood and counts towards the average scores.
