How residents experience their district
Fine neighbourhood, a bit of everything. Elderly, young people, school around the corner and football and tennis in our own village
Auto-translated to English by AISince the merger with Geldermalsen, the municipality of Neerijnen has put its villages and residents up for sale. If you look at, for example, the maintenance of green spaces in the old municipality of Neerijnen, and now in West Betuwe, you can see the difference, where the border stops at the old municipality of Geldermalsen. When you drive into/arrive in Geldermalsen, you see a difference compared to outside the village centre of Geldermalsen. For example, ice control: if you drive on the new back road in Est, it can be as slippery as ice. As soon as you reach the roundabout at Bommelsestraat, no expense or effort has been spared to clear it. The merger has not brought any progress to the residents of the old municipality of Neerijnen. Let alone that this new municipality still has or seeks contact with its residents. The municipality must seek out the citizens more and see how they can be there for the citizen. For example, set up a fixed drop-in hour or a monthly evening meeting to get closer to the citizen.

How residents experience their municipality
If you are open-minded, you have many pleasant contacts. Unfortunately, no café or catering establishment within walking distance.
Auto-translated to English by AIOften loitering youths and vandalism during New Year's Eve with fireworks. Not a pleasant neighbourhood to live in, few facilities for the community, for children, young people and the elderly. It would be nice if more were organised within the community, and if people could get in touch with each other in a more positive way. The neighbourhoods could do with a lot more greenery!! Outside the neighbourhood there is fortunately a nice piece of estate and forest, but now there is also dissatisfaction about that because there are building plans there.
Auto-translated to English by AII've always had girlfriends here, the station is nearby and there are 2 buses every half hour
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet area, shame about the rubbish that sometimes lies there for weeks
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's just great, I live outside the village myself but on a holiday it's a big village party. Also a nice village square with stalls every weekend and a fair and even a party tent.

Auto-translated to English by AIYou feel super welcome in this neighbourhood. Every year there is a village festival and almost the entire village takes part. They even take the elderly and young people into account.
