Living in Uiterweg, Aalsmeer
Uiterweg is not an ordinary residential neighbourhood. It is a ribbon of detached homes, villas and characteristic properties along the road of the same name, directly on the water of the Westeinderplassen. Those who live here do so deliberately: for the space, the greenery, the water and the distance from the hustle and bustle. The neighbourhood has a rural character that you will find in few other parts of the municipality of Aalsmeer. The homes are generally spacious, with gardens on the water, boathouses and an atmosphere that is more reminiscent of Het Gooi than an ordinary Amsterdam suburb.
The population composition confirms this picture. The largest age group consists of 45- to 65-year-olds (325 of the 855 residents), followed by those aged 65 and over (195 people). The average income is €47,400, well above the municipal average of €41,700, and 49% of residents have a high level of education. This is an established, affluent neighbourhood with little turnover.
Facilities in and around Uiterweg
Uiterweg itself is not a street with many facilities. For daily shopping, you will need to go to the centre of Aalsmeer, a few kilometres away. There you will find, among other things, an Albert Heijn and other shops. For more extensive facilities such as schools, sports clubs and medical care, the centre of Aalsmeer is the place to go. Primary schools in the area are accessible by bicycle. The location on the Westeinderplassen makes the neighbourhood attractive for water sports enthusiasts: sailing, rowing and canoeing are popular activities. The water is literally the back garden of many residents.
Accessibility of Uiterweg
Uiterweg lies outside the direct public transport network of Aalsmeer. Bus connections are limited and a car is practically indispensable. Via the N231 and the connection to the A4, you can reach Amsterdam in about twenty minutes and Schiphol in a similar time. This makes the neighbourhood attractive for commuters who combine the peace of the countryside with work in the metropolitan region. By bicycle, the centre of Aalsmeer can be reached in ten to fifteen minutes. Parking is not a problem: most homes have their own driveways or garages.
Residents appreciate the peace and the unique location on the water. On the neighbourhood page for Uiterweg you can read what residents write about their experiences. A typical comment that comes up is: "You really live out here, but you're there in no time when you want to go to the city. It's a privilege." Criticism sometimes focuses on the limited public transport connections and the distance to daily facilities.
Compared to other neighbourhoods in Aalsmeer, Uiterweg is in a category of its own. Centrum offers more urban facilities and a more varied rental market. Stommeer and Hornmeer are family-oriented residential areas with a wider range and lower rental prices. In that respect, Uiterweg is a niche: exclusive, green and watery, but also expensive and with few rental properties available in Uiterweg at any given time.
Is renting in Uiterweg for you?
Renting in Uiterweg is reserved for a specific group. Given the rental prices averaging €4,500 per month in the free-market sector and the absence of social housing, this is not a neighbourhood for starters or people on a limited budget. The neighbourhood mainly attracts expats, dual-income couples and seniors who consciously choose space, privacy and a green living environment close to Amsterdam and Schiphol. Social housing is not available here; if you still want to rent affordably in the municipality, it is better to look at rental properties in the municipality of Aalsmeer or register with a housing corporation for the broader supply. As an alternative, the supply of homes for sale in Uiterweg is considerably larger. Respond quickly if something becomes available for rent in Uiterweg: supply is scarce and the target group is large.
