The different neighbourhoods are almost clearly divided by the starting alphabetical letter of every street. The streets are named after Dutch villages and hamlets under 20.000 inhabitants, with some exceptions which contain bigger towns. In the neighbourhood Heerevelden for example, there are streets like Hillegomlaan and Haaftenstraat. Despite having the starting alphabetical letter too, Heerevelden is, together with Witbrant, the only neighbourhood with this. Three shopping areas facilitate the Reeshof. Buurmalsenplein in Gesworen Hoek which was the (temporary) main shopping area until 1997, the Heyhoef, the largest in its own neighbourhood built in 1997, and at last the Vallei in Dalem built in 2008.
