Nootdorp: village character between The Hague and Delft

Nootdorp feels like a village that has just enough amenities to function independently, but benefits from the close proximity of The Hague and Delft. The Dorpsstraat forms the heart, with a supermarket, bakery, small shops and a few eateries. It is not a bustling centre, but it works for daily shopping. Along the Dobbeplas recreation area you can walk and swim in the summer, although residents on Buurtje.nl rate the greenery a 7.0. That is striking: for a place surrounded by polders and meadows, that score is not high, possibly because the new-build neighbourhoods themselves are quite stony in design.

Residents rate Nootdorp an 8.0 out of 10. Notable are the high scores for safety (8.5), sense of community (8.5) and amenities (8.5). Resident Marit describes it succinctly: "Nice" and "Very cosy." That cosiness lies in the neighbourhood associations, the annual village fair and the fact that you recognise people on the street. Beauty scores the lowest at 6.5, which is reflected in the somewhat monotonous new-build in neighbourhoods like De Venen and Craeyenburch and De Venen Oost. Architecturally, that is not the most exciting environment.

In terms of accessibility, Nootdorp scores an 8.0. Randstadrail stop Nootdorp takes you to The Hague Central in twenty minutes, and via the N470 and A12/A13 you are quickly on the motorway. Families appreciate the primary schools in the area (education scores 8.5). In the older part around the centre and Achter het Raadhuis you will find more character and larger plots, while newer neighbourhoods like Oostambacht and Heronpark offer more modern homes.
