Despite its size, Lieren has a primary school, a bakery and a few DIY-stores. Most of its income come from tourism, with the Veluwe close at hand and multiple camping sites nearby. Also, a steam-train station belonging to the VSM attracts many tourists.

Once in every 3 years, the Uutbuurt takes place in Lieren. This is an event at which almost the whole village is present. At this event local bands and artists perform.[3]
