Life in Vreeswijk
Vreeswijk is a neighbourhood with a mix of old and new, where about 2,300 people live. Residents across the municipality of Nieuwegein give their living environment an average score of 7.11, based on 18 reviews. One resident says: "I think it's a nice living environment.

Another resident, who has lived there for 40 years, says: "We will have been living here with pleasure for 40 years next year. So that says something. Only parking is sometimes a problem. Otherwise, most amenities in the neighbourhood." A third resident mentions: "Sometimes we have trouble with the youngsters on fatbikes, they ride everywhere and way too fast. But otherwise it's a nice neighbourhood." The reviews reflect the wider municipality, not just this neighbourhood. For more on the area, see the Vreeswijk neighbourhood.
