Living in Buitengebied Noordwijk Noord: rural, but not remote

Buitengebied Noordwijk Noord is exactly what the name promises: the rural area north of Noordwijk, where bulb fields, meadows and scattered buildings define the landscape. This is not a classic residential neighbourhood with pavements and playgrounds, but an area where you have space. Many homes are on spacious plots, ranging from detached houses and farmhouses to renovated stolp farmhouses and modern villas. The construction periods vary widely, from old agricultural properties to newer detached homes from the 1990s and more recent.

Daily life here revolves around peace and space. For groceries, you drive to the centre of Noordwijk or to Noordwijkerhout, where you will find supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Jumbo. Primary schools are located in the cores of Noordwijk-Binnen and Noordwijkerhout, a few minutes' drive away. Sports facilities such as tennis clubs and football clubs are also in the surrounding village centres. The beach and boulevard of Noordwijk aan Zee are within cycling distance, which residents experience as a major plus.

In terms of accessibility, you rely on the car or bicycle. There is no own station; the nearest train station is Voorhout, about ten minutes' drive away. Bus lines from Arriva connect the area with Leiden and the coast, but the frequency is limited. The A44 towards Leiden and Amsterdam is reached via the N206 in a quarter of an hour. Cycling to the centre of Noordwijk takes five to ten minutes, depending on where in the rural area you live.

Residents particularly appreciate the peace and green character. "You really live out here, with views over the bulb fields, and yet you are on the beach within ten minutes," writes a resident on the page of Buitengebied Noordwijk Noord. At the same time, it is good to know that you have to take the car for almost all amenities. That is the downside of living rurally here. Compared to neighbourhoods such as Noordwijkerduin or Sancta Maria, the supply of shops and schools within walking distance is negligible. But for those who consciously choose space over convenience, this is exactly what they find.

The rural area attracts a mix of residents. With 210 inhabitants in the 45-65 age category and 170 aged 65 and over, the neighbourhood is clearly popular among people in the second half of their lives. Yet there are also families with children (70 inhabitants under 15). The average income of €39,600 is below the district average of €47,400, which is partly explained by the relatively high proportion of single-person households (160 of the households). The labour participation rate of 66% fits the picture of a neighbourhood with many retirees.

Is a home for sale in Buitengebied Noordwijk Noord something for you?

Buying a home in Buitengebied Noordwijk Noord is particularly attractive for movers and seniors seeking space and peace, with the coast and Leiden within short distance. The average purchase price of over €668,000 makes this no starter area. For families, it can work if you are not dependent on amenities within walking distance. Keep in mind that supply is limited (only 177 homes in total) and that sought-after properties sell quickly. Those looking for a more affordable alternative can look at rental homes in this neighbourhood or at Klei-Oost, where the price level is somewhat more accessible. Buying an apartment in Buitengebied Noordwijk Noord is hardly possible; the supply consists almost exclusively of ground-based homes.
