Living in Victor Midden, Noordwijk
Victor Midden is a quiet, predominantly residential neighbourhood in the centre of Noordwijkerhout, part of the municipality of Noordwijk. The neighbourhood has a typical post-war character: the housing largely dates from the 1960s and 1970s and consists of terraced houses, semi-detached houses and porch flats. The streets are green and well-organised, the scale is human. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for architectural features, but rather for a certain tranquillity and recognisability that many residents appreciate.
The population composition is varied: alongside the largest group of 25 to 45-year-olds (410 residents), there are relatively many over-65s (405 residents) and families with children. This gives the neighbourhood a mixed character, without any one group dominating. The high proportion of single-person households (355) indicates that single people and starters also find a place here, although this is not always easy in the free sector due to the limited supply.
