Experiences from Heiloo
How residents experience their municipality
It's a very nice little village, grown organically with lovely people who were born and raised here. I enjoy cycling through it and everything is within reach. Within a quarter of an hour you're in Alkmaar and by train half an hour towards Amsterdam. The sea is also just half an hour's bike ride away. There are friendly people living here and they're always around. Also a number of supermarkets so you'll find your fellow man there and get along. It's a nice spot, I like being there.

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for 23 years now, and I must say it's a great neighbourhood. The atmosphere is good, you live close to the station and the supermarket, it's very central in Heiloo and I actually have no downsides.
