Living in Landsmeer: village character a stone's throw from Amsterdam
Landsmeer is one of those places where you feel like you're living in the countryside, yet you can be in the centre of Amsterdam within twenty minutes. The village has its own character that you won't quickly confuse with a city neighbourhood. On the neighbourhood page of Landsmeer, residents give it an overall score of 8.0. Accessibility (9.0) and the green surroundings (9.0) score notably high. Resident Morris Koolwijk describes it aptly: "Nice, but a bit of a boring neighbourhood." He appreciates the shops, the sports park and the surrounding nature, especially in summer. At the same time, he notes that it can sometimes be a bit restless in the evenings due to groups of young people. The community score of 6.0 confirms that: it's not a neighbourhood where everyone visits each other, but it is a place where you live pleasantly and safely.
In terms of amenities, Landsmeer has enough for daily life. Along the Dorpsstraat you'll find an Albert Heijn, specialist shops and eateries. For larger groceries or shopping, you head to Purmerend or Amsterdam-Noord. Around Sportpark, several sports clubs are active, including football club SV Landsmeer and tennis club LTC. Families appreciate the schools in the village: primary schools such as De Toermalijn and Het Meerland are centrally located, and the education score of 9.0 speaks volumes. Recreation area Het Twiske is just around the corner and offers swimming lakes, walking paths and space for cycling. For more information about municipal plans and facilities, you can visit the website of the municipality of Landsmeer.
Accessibility is one of the strongest points. Bus line 30 (Connexxion) takes you to Amsterdam Central in about 25 minutes, and by car you're quickly in the city via the N235 and the A10 ring road. Metro station Noord is a real alternative if you take the North/South line from Amsterdam-Noord. Towards Purmerend, you drive in a quarter of an hour via the N235. Those seeking more tranquillity can also look at Purmerland or Den Ilp, two smaller settlements in the same municipality with an even more rural character. Within Landsmeer itself, the neighbourhoods vary: Oude Dorp has the most village charm, while Havenzathe is newer and more spacious in layout.

Since I moved here, I've had many nice experiences in the neighbourhood. There are plenty of shops for fun things to do, and the sports park and the nature around it are really nice in summer. Lately, the streets have been a bit restless, especially in the evening, due to groups of young people on fatbikes. The houses themselves are not very special; they all look very similar. And it's certainly not a modern style. There is a Facebook group where you hear all sorts of things from the various people in the neighbourhood. Also, if there is a neighbourhood party, for example, you'll find it there.
