Tussen de Vaarten Noord-West, Almere
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Breitnerstraat sits in a quiet part of Almere, with a large 305 m² plot and 181 m² of living space, 65% more floor area than the neighbourhood average. The house was built in 2000 and has an A energy label, so it's efficient to run. At €615,000, the price is on the high side compared to the local average of €435,000, but you're getting a lot more space than typical homes in the area. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Almere tend to command a premium.
The neighbourhood has a mixed feel, based on two reviews. One resident calls it "Peculiar neighbourhood" and describes issues with noise and crime, saying "this is a ghetto; burglars steal your food, steal your groceries. The municipality does not intervene." Another gives a low score, saying "Not for me, I want a downstairs apartment." The area is fairly urban (density 1803 addresses per km²) and has a mix of families and singles. Most homes are owner-occupied (51%) and the majority are single-family houses. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Tussen de Vaarten N.- West.
Daily errands are easy: a Dekamarkt is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. For school runs, Openbare Basisschool Het Palet is on your doorstep, and De Optimist is a couple of streets away. The train station is a five-minute walk, making commutes straightforward.

Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a nice, liveable neighbourhood with enough amenities like schools and supermarkets nearby. Also plenty of playgrounds for the children. Unfortunately, there are many shady types at night and regular attempted burglaries. I would also have liked to see a bit more greenery. The joint neighbourhood watch is well organised though.

How residents experience their municipality
We lived here very pleasantly for 23 years and because our house became too big for us, given our age, we bought a smaller home. This neighbourhood is characterised by a number of favourable factors: little turnover of residents, people are quite neighbourhood-minded and have excellent contacts with each other. Helpful, annual neighbourhood BBQ, quiet surroundings with plenty of greenery. Schools within walking distance, station and buses likewise as well as shops. Within five minutes you are on the motorway and with the A6 and A27 around the corner you can reach all directions. If someone were to ask me whether it's nice to live here, I would answer without hesitation with a firm YES.
