Easily accessible without traffic on the way
Whether you travel by bike, car, or public transport, you can quickly get from one part of the city to another in Venlo. Without traffic jams or chaotic traffic situations. Only on weekends can it be busy in and around the center of Venlo. Do you work outside the municipality? Then you can quickly reach your destination via the A67, A73, and various N-roads.
All daily amenities close by
In all Venlo districts, you will find a village center with a supermarket for daily groceries and a community center. All districts, except Boekend, also have one or more primary schools. Venlo has three secondary schools: the Valuascollege in the center of Venlo, College Den Hulster in Venlo-Zuid, and the Blariacumcollege in Blerick.
Alone, together or a little bit of both
Venlo is big enough to go your own way and remain anonymous. On the other hand, Venlo is small enough to form close-knit communities. Neighbors greet each other, local entrepreneurs recognize you, and the vibrant club life in Venlo fosters connections between young and old. In Venlo, you can do what suits your way of life. Alone, together, or a bit of both.
Large cities 60 minutes away
Venlo is located in the middle of several large Dutch and German cities. Within an hour's drive or train ride, you can find yourself in the center of Eindhoven, Nijmegen, Roermond, Maastricht, Aachen, Düsseldorf, or Duisburg. This makes Venlo an important hub for logistics companies and an ideal starting point for residents for a day of shopping or cultural exploration.
Surrounded by greenery
In Venlo, you don't have to walk, cycle, or drive far in any part of the city when you're ready for relaxation in nature. All districts are connected by the Maas River, where you'll find various beautiful walking and cycling paths along the banks. Prefer the forest? Then nature areas like the Ravenvennen, the Zwart Water, De Groote Heide, and the Jammerdal are always nearby! Even if you live right in the center, nature is never far away in Venlo.
