The Laarstraat en omgeving neighbourhood

This is a well-loved part of Zutphen. One resident, who has lived here for two years, describes it as a 'lovely neighbourhood' with a mix of young and old, a residents' committee greening the area, and a small park just a minute away. They appreciate the nearby supermarket and shops, and the proximity to the city centre. The only complaint is dog poop not being cleaned up. The area is densely urban, with mostly single-person households and a significant share of older residents. The Laarstraat en omgeving neighbourhood has a strong sense of community.

Life on the street

Your daily routine here is easy: the AH XL supermarket is just around the corner, with Aldi and SPAR a couple of streets away. For school runs, the Bijbelgetrouw KindCentrum de Bongerd primary school is a five-minute walk, and the Eligant Lyceum secondary school is also within walking distance. The city centre is a short stroll, with restaurants and a library nearby. The municipality of Zutphen offers a compact, historic setting with all amenities close at hand.
