Kleverpark-noord, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Meester Cornelisstraat sits in Kleverpark-noord, a Haarlem neighbourhood that has been transforming from a working-class area into a place where cargo bikes and English conversations are becoming the norm. At 105 m² with energy label A, it's a modern, efficient home. The rent of €2,319 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €2,180, but the new build and generous size justify the premium. For context, this is one of the apartments in Haarlem currently available.
Two residents give the neighbourhood a 7.13 out of 10. One, who has lived here over 30 years, says: "Through urban renewal we moved from a working-class neighbourhood where we lived very cosily to the Kleverpark. A neighbourhood for the better class. Complete with cargo bikes and conversations that contain more English words than Dutch." Another, a first-time renter, says: "I think the neighbourhood is fine. It's positive that you can separate waste nearby, there are supermarkets close by and you're a 15-minute walk from the station. Some downsides are that there is very little parking space and the streets are narrow." The area is densely urban with 3,666 addresses per km², and most homes are owner-occupied (71%). This is the neighbourhood Kleverpark-noord.
For your morning bread, Dekamarkt is on your doorstep, and Albert Heijn is just around the corner. School runs are easy: Openbare Basisschool Ter Cleeff is a couple of streets away, and Spaarne College for secondary education is similarly close. A park or public garden is a five-minute walk, and the train station is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Haarlem offers all the urban amenities you'd expect.

Positive. Through urban renewal we moved from a working-class neighbourhood where we lived very cosily to the Kleverpark. A neighbourhood for the better class. We've now lived here for over 30 years and see the area changing into a real yuppie neighbourhood. Complete with cargo bikes and conversations that contain more English words than Dutch.
Auto-translated to English by AII think the neighbourhood is fine. I think it's positive that you can separate waste nearby, there are supermarkets close by and you're a 15-minute walk from the station. Some downsides are that there is very little parking space and the streets are narrow, making parking difficult and you have to stop for oncoming traffic. Also, the shops closing at 8, sometimes 9 o'clock, I find a bit too early. I don't really have any complaints about the area, this is my first home away from my parents, and I'm quite happy with the setting.
