Living in Nieuw-Vennep: cosy, practical, but not without caveats
Nieuw-Vennep scores a 7.5 out of 10 based on 11 resident reviews on the neighbourhood page of Nieuw-Vennep. What immediately stands out: residents particularly appreciate the accessibility (8.3) and the amenities (8.1). That is justified. Along the Venneperweg and the Molenmeent shopping centre you will find several supermarkets, including Albert Heijn, Lidl and Jumbo. There are plenty of daily shops, and for larger purchases Hoofddorp is a quarter of an hour's drive away. Resident Frederique writes: "There are many shops nearby and many supermarkets, public transport is very nice, many buses run." Bus lines such as 340 and 300 connect Nieuw-Vennep with Hoofddorp, Schiphol and Leiden. Station Nieuw-Vennep (Sprinter) takes you to Leiden Centraal in about 20 minutes and to Amsterdam in half an hour via a transfer at Schiphol.
The atmosphere varies per neighbourhood. In the newer districts such as Getsewoud Noord and Getsewoud Zuid, many young families live, and you notice that from the bustle around primary schools and sports clubs. Education scores a 7.7 among residents. There are several primary schools such as De Veldhoen, De Bolster and De Springplank, plus secondary school Kaj Munk College. Sports clubs like football club SV Nieuw-Vennep and tennis club TVNV offer plenty of opportunities. Cynthia mentions the community centre as a plus: "In our neighbourhood there is quite a lot to do. This is also because there is a nice community centre."
But there are also clear downsides, and you need to know them if you want to buy a house here. Several residents report nuisance from loitering youths, especially in the evenings near parks and shopping centres. Norah is honest about that: "It has become quite chavvy, there are many loitering youths at the shops and parks, noise and nuisance." Resident Mijnders confirms that: youths shouting in the park at night and sometimes being threatening. The scores for cleanliness (6.8) and housing (6.8) are therefore the lowest. Ludwig-Fauser, who has lived there since the new build, notes that mutual contact has faded over the years: "Everyone lives in their own bubble, also caused by both partners working." In the older neighbourhoods such as the western part and Linquenda, you notice that the maintenance of public spaces could be better. The municipality of Haarlemmermeer does invest in renewal, but residents think it could be faster.
Does Nieuw-Vennep suit you as a buyer?

We have reasonable contact with each other, but if you don't have family in the neighbourhood, you could lie dead in your house for a month; it's still every man for himself. For hygiene, the streets are not cleaned, the street is uneven, you have to watch where you walk. For housing, more maintenance is needed; my house is damp, my kitchen lock is broken, the skylight hasn't been fixed properly, and I'm heating like crazy to keep warm, and it's only November.
Auto-translated to English by AII came to live at Oostmoor 22 when it was new. At first, very good contact with the fellow residents. Now partly - owner-occupied homes - the contact hasn't improved. Everyone lives in their own bubble, also caused by both partners working. People have no time for others. I myself make frequent use of the neighbourhood centre Linguenda, for a cup of coffee and a meal twice a month. Organised by volunteers. Even though the neighbourhood centre is centrally located in the area, it is still unknown to many. I also go to the meeting centre and C PUNT, to meet others and the belote club. For many elderly people, using a PC or laptop is somewhat complicated, and they therefore miss out on some information. I also use the supermarket for communication; you always run into someone you haven't seen in a while. Ludwig Fauser. optionally phone number 0640391865.
Auto-translated to English by AII do think it has become quite chavvy, there are many loitering youths at the shops and in the parks making noise and causing nuisance and mess. There are plenty of shops and ways to reach public transport, and there are also plenty of schools, so that is a plus point. Safety is quite poor. In the evenings, if you want to cycle alone, it has become quite scary because there are very unpleasant people around who often harass you. This is especially around the IJweg and the Kikkers (hockey) and at the Symfonie. In the evenings, there are also many drunk young people around the Symfonie. There is occasional enforcement, but they don't do much. More checks and stricter controls are needed.
Auto-translated to English by AIYoung people make a lot of noise in the evenings/nights and sometimes threaten. Then they hang out in the park and shout, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a safe neighbourhood, there is good education and good primary schools, and there are many shops nearby and many supermarkets, public transport is very nice, many buses run, there are also several sports clubs, and beautiful nature, the neighbourhood is very cosy and parties are also organised and they are very cosy!!
Auto-translated to English by AIThere's quite a lot to do in our neighbourhood. This is also because there's a nice community centre. So there's something for everyone. In one word: cosy!
