Living in Middenmeer: sports parks, Science Park and the Middenweg
Middenmeer is a neighbourhood that may not immediately be on your radar, but on closer inspection is surprisingly complete. The area stretches from the Middenweg in the west to the Science Park in the east, with a mix of pre-war buildings, post-war porch flats and newer developments in between. Residents on Buurtje.nl give the neighbourhood a 7.2 out of 10. Notable are the high scores for safety (9.0) and green space (8.0). You notice that greenery immediately: the Middenmeer and Voorland sports parks offer space for football, tennis and athletics, and the Flevopark is within walking distance. Education also scores an 8.0, which is logical given the range of primary schools such as the Eerste Openluchtschool on Cliostraat and the Montessorischool on Populierenlaan.
In terms of amenities, the Middenweg is the central axis. Here you will find bakeries, small specialist shops and supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Dirk van den Broek. Residents rate the amenities as adequate but not outstanding, with a 6.0. The same applies to the beauty of the neighbourhood: some parts look a bit dated, especially around Middenmeer-Noord where post-war construction predominates. In the Linnaeusparkbuurt the atmosphere is greener and more villa-like, while the area around Science Park-Zuid has a completely different, modern character with university buildings and newly built apartments.
Accessibility is good but not spectacular, with a 7.0 from residents. Amsterdam Science Park station is on the east side and takes you to Central Station in ten minutes. Tram line 9 and bus line 40 run along the Middenweg towards the city centre. By car you are quickly on the A10 ring road East. It is not a Jordaan or Grachtengordel-West in terms of city-centre feel, but that is precisely what makes Middenmeer attractive for people who want to live in an urban environment without the hustle and bustle of the city centre. The municipality of Amsterdam is investing in the area, including through development around Science Park. More information about municipal plans can be found on the website of the municipality of Amsterdam.
