Living in Uitbreiding-Jisp, Wormerland
Uitbreiding-Jisp is a quiet, predominantly village-like neighbourhood on the edge of historic Jisp, in the green heart of the Zaanstreek. The name reveals its origins: it is the post-war expansion district belonging to the village of Jisp. The housing mainly consists of ground-level homes, terraced houses and detached houses from the 1960s and 1970s, supplemented by some newer homes. The streetscape is green and orderly, with an open character that suits the surrounding polder landscape.
With 250 residents, this is a neighbourhood where everyone knows each other. The largest age group consists of 45- to 65-year-olds, and nearly half of households are married. Families with children are less represented than in many other neighbourhoods. This gives the area a quiet, mature character. Those seeking hustle and bustle and urbanity are not in the right place here. Those looking for peace, space and a village atmosphere, all the more so.
Facilities in and around Uitbreiding-Jisp
Uitbreiding-Jisp itself has no supermarket, school or shopping centre within its boundaries. For these, you rely on the surrounding centres. In Wormer, a few kilometres away, you will find an Albert Heijn and primary schools, among others. For more extensive shopping and facilities such as a GP, pharmacy and secondary schools, head to Wormer or Wormerveer. The area does offer plenty of space for recreation: walking and cycling along the polder ditches and the open peat meadow area is the daily reality here. If you love nature and peace, you have it literally on your doorstep.
Accessibility of Uitbreiding-Jisp
