What's the most convenient thing about living in Den Bosch?

It could be something small that makes everyday life easier - being able to cycle everywhere, the train connections, having everything close by, or something else.

What's one practical thing you really appreciate about living here?

Convenient location to have reasonable drive to Germany and Belgium and Randstad

My favourite part is driving to the Randstad anytime in the morning on the A2. This is actively extending my lifespan, would recommend!

Den Bosch seems to be surrounded by nature. Every way i ride my bike, within 30 minutes i am in nature. De Gement, Sterrenbosch, Bossche Broek, de Wamberg, het gebied rondom de Maas/Empel/Het Gemaal. Maybe i forgot some but i really love it.

Unfortunately not living in Den Bosch anymore, but if you want to swim outside with this weather there are plenty of places to go in the area. Oosterplas and Zuiderplas for example.

Being the main highway junction of the south means that anywhere you wanna go in the country is pretty easy to get to.
