How residents experience their municipality
Enjoying, just fantastic to be able to live here.
Auto-translated to English by AIOverveen is a good and pleasant neighbourhood to grow up in. The traffic situation is safe enough for children to walk to their primary school on their own without any problems. There are plenty of primary and secondary schools in the area and they are also easily accessible. Even if you don't study in Overveen, there are enough facilities to easily take you to major transport hubs. Very well located. Close to the beach and Haarlem. So a pleasant environment.

Auto-translated to English by AIOur neighbourhood is not very good with each other. Sometimes fun things are organised but you have to be on good terms with certain people to actually have a good time there. Unless you go with your own friends.
