Living in Baarn: village cosiness with everything within reach
Baarn is a village that doesn't bore you quickly, but at the same time doesn't pretend to be a city. On the neighbourhood page of Baarn, residents give the neighbourhood a 7.4 out of 10. Notably high scores are for sense of community (8.0) and education (8.0), while the rating for housing lags behind at 5.5. The latter is not surprising: prices have risen sharply and supply is not inexhaustible. Resident Isabel sums it up nicely: "Apart from the occasional insecurity in this little village, I couldn't have wished for a better place on earth to live. Everything is accessible and everyone is well provided for." Another resident, Ms D Post, emphasises the cultural vibrancy and mentions the presence of churches, schools, childcare and a large playground as plus points.
In terms of amenities, the Centre is the place where you will find most shops, terraces and restaurants. Supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Jumbo are within walking distance for most residents.

Sports clubs are plentiful, from football club SV Baarn to tennis club De Geeren.

Auto-translated to English by AIBorn and raised in this neighbourhood where many cultural people and churches come together. Schools and childcare also a large playground.. for children. Community centre and associations also present. Supermarket within walking distance. Also a nice park that is closed at night. And yes also a cemetery and a funeral home in the neighbourhood. Medical centre also there with pharmacy, physio and dentist and GPs. Accessible for everyone. From young to old lives here. People know each other, or not, but that is usually what the person wants themselves. Parking is a bit of an issue, but there is usually a spot. Most houses were built just after the war. Grew quickly until 1980. After that time buildings were replaced or renovated. 3 emergency homes for refugees since this year. This neighbourhood is absolutely not boring or quiet... 24 hours there is movement... I wouldn't want to leave here soon. Public transport unfortunately gone, but maybe that will come back a bit. All in all you can be born here and die. Only downside is that there are hardly any things for young people aged 14 to 21. They then look further than the neighbourhood. But complain about this neighbourhood no I cannot do that. A few more bins and a better mentality in cleaning up could sometimes use a lesson here, but that is more for the municipality.... Also the preservation and protection of greenery could be better from the municipality.
