The Coendersborg neighbourhood

More than half of households are single people, which fits a room rental well. The housing stock is almost entirely owner-occupied, so rental options are limited. The Coendersborg neighbourhood has a calm, established feel, with the park and the Winschoterdiep nearby.
Life on the street
The Goeman Borgesiuslaan is a broad, tree-lined street with a mix of houses and low-rise flats. For daily shopping, the Poiesz supermarket is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. The Groningse Schoolvereniging and the Joseph Haydn-School are both within a ten-minute walk, and the Zernike College for secondary education is a bit further. The train station is about 1.7 km away, so the city centre is easy to reach. The municipality of Groningen is a lively university city with plenty going on.
