Experience in Oss, Netherlands by Anouk

What is it like to live in Oss? Would you recommend it? What is the city like?

It is nice to live in Oss since the people are nice but I would not recommend it since there is not much to do in Oss. There are some shops,terraces and a museum but that's it. It is a little bit grey however.

What is the student lifestyle like in Oss?

There are no students in Oss. Only highschool students. There are only students whom live in Oss and study somewhere else.

How much does it cost to live in Oss?

I do not know since there are no student rooms.

Is it difficult to find accommodation in Oss? Is there any advice you can give?

Not applicable.

What is the food like? What are your favourite dishes?

The food is average. Not necessarily good yet not bad. The terraces in the city centre serve ok food but not with a certain theme. Only the restaurant called 'De nieuwe Wereld' has food from all over the world in a 'Dutch' coating. Furthermore, there are many foreign restaurants like Greek, Chinese, Italian and Turkish restaurants.

What places would you recommend visiting in Oss?

I would recommend the city centre and its terraces and the museum 'Jan Cunen'.

Is it good to eat out in Oss? Can you tell us your favourite spots?

Yes it is good but not the best I have ever tasted. There are some good restaurants in the 'Peperstraat' yet I do not know their names.

Is the nightlife good in Oss? Where is good to go?

No, there is no nightlife. Maybe there is one club but that is it. I do not even know what it is called.

What advice would you give future students heading to Oss?

I would rather go somewhere else. But I do not think many students will go to Oss since there is no university near.
