Living in the green

One of the major advantages of living in Venlo is the diversity in village centers and city districts. Situated by the river Maas and surrounded by forests, heathlands, and fens, you can be in a beautiful green environment within 10 minutes from any Venlo city district or village center. Do you choose peace, space, and greenery? Then there are several Venlo districts and neighborhoods where you will likely feel completely at home.

The smaller, the closer-knit.

All districts of the municipality of Venlo have their own unique character. They speak a slightly different dialect, celebrate their own carnival, and have their own sports clubs and associations. The smaller the district, the closer-knit the community and the stronger the "everyone-knows-everyone" culture. Open yourself up to the environment and the environment will do the same for you. Before you know it, you'll be part of the community!
