About Arendstraat 29, Badhoevedorp
The asking price of €325,000 is on the high side compared to the average for apartments in Badhoevedorp Centrum. However, the central location and the fact that it's a well-maintained area may justify the premium. The price per square metre is around €6,770, which is above the neighbourhood average. You can compare it with other apartments in Haarlemmermeer to see how it stacks up.
Energy label F is one of the least efficient labels, so you can expect higher energy bills compared to a home with a better label. The exact costs depend on your usage and the heating system. The label is an official registration from EP-Online, not a statement about the condition of the building. It's worth factoring in higher heating costs when budgeting.
The nearest train station is 5.9 km away, which is about a 15-minute drive or a 30-minute bus ride. The area is well served by buses, but for train connections you'll need to travel to Schiphol or Amsterdam. The distance is manageable if you have a car or don't mind a longer commute.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Dr. Plesmanschool is just around the corner (201 m), Christelijke Basisschool Oranje Nassau is a five-minute walk (397 m), and G.Th. Rietveldschool is about 600 m away. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.9 km away, so a bike or bus is handy.
Yes, the neighbourhood has a low crime rate with only 35 recorded incidents in the latest data. It's a quiet, family-friendly area with a mix of ages. The urbanity level is 2 (strongly urban), but it feels more like a village centre with shops and green spaces nearby.
You have three supermarkets within a couple of streets: Albert Heijn at 181 m, Vomar at 210 m, and Lidl at 273 m. That means you can do your daily shopping on foot without any trouble. For a larger Jumbo, it's about 1.5 km away.
Figures on residents, liveability and the housing market
How residents experience their district
Unaffordable houses are being built, facilities lag behind. Refuse trucks are always on time but the bins and waste containers are not emptied often, resulting in mess on and along the roads and pavements. One road leading to Bloemenbuurt that is full of rubbish due to new construction and through traffic. Too many Moroccan people. Good schools though.

How residents experience their municipality
It's quite quiet and damp. It's also very cosy, children enjoy playing with each other.
Auto-translated to English by AIFortunately, everything is reasonably close by, such as Haarlem, Hoofddorp.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's lovely living here, you know the neighbours, contact, and close to a small park, shops, and a retirement home. Pleasant, 10 minutes' walk to a recreational lake.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have reasonable contact with each other, but if you don't have family in the neighbourhood, you could lie dead in your house for a month; it's still every man for himself. For hygiene, the streets are not cleaned, the street is uneven, you have to watch where you walk. For housing, more maintenance is needed; my house is damp, my kitchen lock is broken, the skylight hasn't been fixed properly, and I'm heating like crazy to keep warm, and it's only November.

Auto-translated to English by AINice surroundings, quiet, convenient location relative to the A44 (though there are various road closures and diversions until 2030 due to bridge replacements). There are no shops, but a mobile shop comes three times a week for last-minute groceries, otherwise you drive to Sassenheim, Lisse or Nieuw-Vennep. Things are regularly organised in both De Buitenkaag and De Kaag, and thanks to that I've already met several villagers, which makes living here pleasant. A local newspaper appears a few times a year with all sorts of useful information and articles about the villages, residents and/or activities. Very handy!
Auto-translated to English by AII came to live at Oostmoor 22 when it was new. At first, very good contact with the fellow residents. Now partly - owner-occupied homes - the contact hasn't improved. Everyone lives in their own bubble, also caused by both partners working. People have no time for others. I myself make frequent use of the neighbourhood centre Linguenda, for a cup of coffee and a meal twice a month. Organised by volunteers. Even though the neighbourhood centre is centrally located in the area, it is still unknown to many. I also go to the meeting centre and C PUNT, to meet others and the belote club. For many elderly people, using a PC or laptop is somewhat complicated, and they therefore miss out on some information. I also use the supermarket for communication; you always run into someone you haven't seen in a while. Ludwig Fauser. optionally phone number 0640391865.
