Nieuw-Vennep is a neighbourhood where the majority of homes are owned by their residents: 70% are owner-occupied, only 30% are rental. Of those rental properties, about 21% are owned by housing corporations (social housing) and 8% are offered by other landlords in the private sector.

The range runs from approximately €1,046 to €3,750 per month, with an average floor area of 109 m².

Nieuw-Vennep: cosy village or every man for himself?
With over 31,700 residents, Nieuw-Vennep is no longer a small village, but it does not feel like a city either. Residents give the neighbourhood a 7.5 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl, based on eleven reviews. Accessibility (8.3) and amenities (8.1) score notably high: there are plenty of supermarkets, shops and bus lines that quickly take you to Hoofddorp or Schiphol. Education scores 7.7 and resident Frederique writes: "There is good education and good primary schools, lots of shops and supermarkets nearby, and public transport is very nice." That picture is accurate. Along the Venneperweg you will find the shopping centre with an Albert Heijn, Jumbo and various specialist shops, and bus lines towards Hoofddorp station depart several times an hour.
Yet not everything is rosy. Several residents mention nuisance from loitering youths, especially in the evenings around parks and shopping areas. Norah (6.2/10) is honest: "It has become quite chavvy, there are a lot of loitering youths making noise at the shops and in the parks." Resident Mijnders confirms this: "Young people make a lot of noise in the evenings and at night and sometimes threaten people." That is something to bear in mind, especially if you are looking near Nieuw-Vennep Oost or around the centre. The newer neighbourhoods such as Getsewoud Noord and Getsewoud Zuid are generally considered quieter.
The social fabric is a point of concern. The largest group of households consists of families with children (5,910), and 40% of residents are married. Yet several residents describe the mutual bond as superficial. Tiny puts it sharply: "If you don't have family nearby, you could lie dead in your house for a month, it's still every man for himself." Ludwig-Fauser, who lives on Oostmoor, recognises this: the contact was good during the new-build phase, but "everyone now lives in their own bubble." At the same time, there is an active community centre, and Cynthia calls her neighbourhood "cosy" with "quite a lot to do." So it depends heavily on which neighbourhood you choose.

We have reasonable contact with each other, but if you don't have family in the neighbourhood, you could lie dead in your house for a month; it's still every man for himself. For hygiene, the streets are not cleaned, the street is uneven, you have to watch where you walk. For housing, more maintenance is needed; my house is damp, my kitchen lock is broken, the skylight hasn't been fixed properly, and I'm heating like crazy to keep warm, and it's only November.
Auto-translated to English by AII came to live at Oostmoor 22 when it was new. At first, very good contact with the fellow residents. Now partly - owner-occupied homes - the contact hasn't improved. Everyone lives in their own bubble, also caused by both partners working. People have no time for others. I myself make frequent use of the neighbourhood centre Linguenda, for a cup of coffee and a meal twice a month. Organised by volunteers. Even though the neighbourhood centre is centrally located in the area, it is still unknown to many. I also go to the meeting centre and C PUNT, to meet others and the belote club. For many elderly people, using a PC or laptop is somewhat complicated, and they therefore miss out on some information. I also use the supermarket for communication; you always run into someone you haven't seen in a while. Ludwig Fauser. optionally phone number 0640391865.
Auto-translated to English by AII do think it has become quite chavvy, there are many loitering youths at the shops and in the parks making noise and causing nuisance and mess. There are plenty of shops and ways to reach public transport, and there are also plenty of schools, so that is a plus point. Safety is quite poor. In the evenings, if you want to cycle alone, it has become quite scary because there are very unpleasant people around who often harass you. This is especially around the IJweg and the Kikkers (hockey) and at the Symfonie. In the evenings, there are also many drunk young people around the Symfonie. There is occasional enforcement, but they don't do much. More checks and stricter controls are needed.
Auto-translated to English by AIYoung people make a lot of noise in the evenings/nights and sometimes threaten. Then they hang out in the park and shout, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a safe neighbourhood, there is good education and good primary schools, and there are many shops nearby and many supermarkets, public transport is very nice, many buses run, there are also several sports clubs, and beautiful nature, the neighbourhood is very cosy and parties are also organised and they are very cosy!!
Auto-translated to English by AIThere's quite a lot to do in our neighbourhood. This is also because there's a nice community centre. So there's something for everyone. In one word: cosy!
