Living in Bedrijventerrein De Striptekenaar, Almere
Living on a business park is a conscious choice, and that certainly applies to Bedrijventerrein De Striptekenaar in Almere. This area is part of the Stripheldenbuurt, a district named after comic characters and cartoonist terminology, something you also see reflected in the street names in the vicinity. The park itself has an industrial and commercial character: think sheds, office buildings and business halls, not terraced houses or apartment complexes. The few rental homes or living spaces that become available here are therefore unusual properties, such as lofts in former commercial premises or spaces with a combined living and working function.
Atmosphere and character
It is quiet on the park outside office hours, but during the day there is considerable activity. There is little greenery, no playground around the corner and no cosy neighbourhood supermarket within walking distance. Anyone looking for a rental home here does so not for the cosy neighbourhood atmosphere, but for the space, the low rent per square metre compared to regular homes, or the possibility of combining living and working. This makes it a niche market, but for the right person, renting in Bedrijventerrein De Striptekenaar can be a smart choice.
Facilities
There are hardly any facilities directly on the park. For daily shopping, schools and healthcare, you rely on the adjacent residential neighbourhoods of Stripheldenbuurt. In the nearby residential areas you will find primary schools, a GP and supermarkets. The nearest shopping centre with a full range is located towards the centre of Almere Buiten or Almere Stad. Sports facilities and parks are a short bike ride away in the surrounding residential neighbourhoods. For families with young children, the immediate vicinity of the business park is not ideally laid out.
Accessibility
Accessibility by car is good: the business park has direct connections to the local main roads of Almere, and via the A6 and A27 you are quickly towards Amsterdam (approx. 35 minutes), Utrecht or Lelystad. Parking on and around the park is generally not a problem; free parking is the norm on business parks like this. By public transport, the park is less well served for residents; the nearest bus stops are on the edge of the park and offer connections to Almere Buiten station, from where trains run to Amsterdam Central and Lelystad. By bike, you can get there from the centre of Almere Buiten in ten to fifteen minutes via the cycle paths along the main roads.
Residents of the wider Stripheldenbuurt describe the district as quiet and green, but the business park itself is rarely discussed as a residential address in reviews.
