Living in Muziekwijk Noord-Noord, Almere

Muziekwijk Noord-Noord is a quiet, green-dominated residential neighbourhood in the northern part of Almere Stad. The neighbourhood has a recognisable Almere character: spacious streets, many single-family homes with gardens, and a mix of terraced houses and detached houses, most of which were built in the 1980s and 1990s. The housing density is low compared to the more urban neighbourhoods closer to the centre of Almere Stad. Families with children form the largest household group, which is also noticeable in the atmosphere of the neighbourhood: children are out on the streets in the afternoons, there are several playgrounds, and the parking situation is generally relaxed.

The name of the district gives it away: streets in Muziekwijk are named after musicians and musical instruments. This gives the neighbourhood a recognisable identity within Almere, even though you don't immediately notice it in daily life. What you do notice is the tranquillity. This is not a neighbourhood with heavy traffic or a pub on the corner.
