Green, quiet and ageing: how people live in Beekbergen and surroundings
Beekbergen and surroundings is not an urban neighbourhood. Anyone renting a home here consciously chooses peace, green and space. The Veluwe is literally on your doorstep, and you notice that in the streetscape: wide avenues, detached houses, little traffic. The largest age group consists of 45- to 65-year-olds (over 1,500 residents), followed by those aged 65 and over (1,430 people). This gives the neighbourhood a quiet, mature character. Young families and students are clearly in the minority here.
On the neighbourhood page of Beekbergen and surroundings you will find resident reviews and detailed neighbourhood data. Residents consistently rate the peace and proximity to nature highly. A frequently heard comment: "You live here as if you are on holiday, but permanently." Criticism focuses mainly on the limited amenities for daily use. There is no large shopping centre in the neighbourhood itself; for major groceries and urban facilities, residents rely on Apeldoorn city, about ten to fifteen minutes away by car. Public transport is available but limited, meaning that a car is not a luxury but a necessity for most residents.
The neighbourhood consists of several sub-areas, each with its own character. The village-like Beekbergen has a recognisable village centre with local shops and a church. The Bosgebied Beekbergen-West and Bosgebied Beekbergen-Zuid are even quieter and greener, with almost exclusively owner-occupied homes and hardly any rental market. The Agrarischgebied Beekbergen speaks for itself: open landscape, scattered buildings, few neighbours. Anyone wanting to rent an apartment here will search for a long time. The supply consists mainly of ground-floor homes.
