Best location

Heemstede feels safe and has nice homes, and you're close to everything. A day at the beach is no problem, on holiday you're quickly at Schiphol, a day of sailing is truly perfect.

Cosy, quiet

-quiet, quite a lot of elderly people live here which is very nice because usually there are no loud parties late at night or anything like that. -make lots of friends, big age range but they also live very spread out across the Rivierenbuurt, so it's quiet but you can still make friends. -cosy, occasional neighbourhood party and as far as I know everyone gets along just fine.
