Hoofddorp Overbos Noord, Haarlemmermeer
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Muiderbos 184 sits in a quiet, leafy part of Hoofddorp Overbos Noord. At 73 m² it's compact but well laid out, with an energy label D, something to factor in for running costs. The asking price of €375,000 is the cheapest of the 12 apartments currently for sale in the neighbourhood and sits 38% below the average asking price of €603,500, making it a keen entry point into the market. For context, apartments in Haarlemmermeer tend to be larger and more expensive.
The neighbourhood has a bit of a split personality, according to residents. One says: 'I do think the neighbourhood is going downhill, but the street where I live is still great. Nice neighbours. The shops are good. Public transport is also good. Beautiful green forest in the area.' Another is less positive: 'There is too much concentration of problem families in certain blocks of flats or apartment complexes… The neighbourhood is reasonably green, but poorly maintained.' Based on three reviews, the overall score is 7.77 out of 10. The area is mostly families (42% of households have children) and has a strong sense of local facilities. The Hoofddorp Overbos Noord neighbourhood is reasonably urban with an address density of 2022 addresses per km².
For your morning bread run, Vomar is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is 95 metres away, both on your doorstep. Three primary schools are within a five-minute walk: Basisschool De Bosrank, De Klimboom and IJwegschool. The neighbourhood has a GP practice 0.7 km away and a park or public garden just 0.2 km from the home. The municipality of Haarlemmermeer offers a wide range of amenities, including a library and a restaurant.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Keijser & Drieman NVM Makelaars Haarlem.

Auto-translated to English by AIThere is too much concentration of problem families in certain blocks of flats or apartment complexes. Senior housing in the middle of the neighbourhoods is no longer used for that purpose. Now families/refugees? live there. There is no information provided to residents about why and how certain decisions are made. The park is now being completely renovated, but the greenery in the streets is not well maintained, just like the paving itself. There is a big difference in how the various streets look. The Boskern offers a wide range of activities, but they struggle to reach the people. In terms of facilities, there is enough on offer: GP practice, shops, schools, etc. The buses are easily accessible. The neighbourhood is reasonably green, but poorly maintained. The bring parks are dirty and people put things there that are meant for bulky waste. I have lived here for 40 years but feel no sense of community with the neighbourhood.

About Muiderbos 184, Hoofddorp
The asking price of €375,000 is the lowest of the 12 apartments currently for sale in Hoofddorp Overbos Noord and sits 38% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €603,500. However, the floor area of 73 m² is 42% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 125 m², and the energy label D is less efficient than most homes for sale in the area, where 58% have label A. So the price reflects the smaller size and lower energy performance.
The energy label is D. This means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, heating and electricity costs will be higher than in a home with label A or B. In the neighbourhood, 58% of homes for sale have label A and only 8% have label D or lower, so this apartment is on the less efficient end of the local market.
The nearest train station is 5.6 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, residents mention that buses are easily accessible.
Two supermarkets are on your doorstep: Vomar at 67 metres and Albert Heijn at 95 metres. A GP practice is 0.7 km away, and a park is just 0.2 km from the home. For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.2 km away. The neighbourhood also has a restaurant at 0.7 km and a library at 2.4 km.
