Living in Putten: village-like, green, and with a strong community
Putten is a village on the Veluwe that firmly retains its village character. Residents on Buurtje.nl give the neighbourhood an 8.1 out of 10, based on 7 reviews. Safety (8.6) and accessibility (8.6) score notably high, but green spaces (8.4) and education (8.4) are also appreciated. Resident Aartje sums it up succinctly: "I've lived here since 1986 and never had any problems, cosy with the neighbours." This feeling of stability and cosiness comes through in several reviews. Thomas calls it "nicely quiet" and emphasises the importance of a neighbourhood where people greet each other. On the Putten neighbourhood page you can read all the reviews and sub-scores.
In terms of amenities, the centre is well-equipped. Along the Dorpsstraat and surrounding area you'll find an Albert Heijn, a Jumbo, and various specialist shops. There are several primary schools in the neighbourhood, including De Schakel and Het Kompas. Resident LJ van Bloe notes that around school start and end times you can sometimes get stuck due to parked parents: "It's right near a school, so around start and end times you might not be able to get away if you're unlucky." A recognisable point for anyone living near a school. For secondary education, there is the Corlaer College. Sports facilities are plentiful: football club DVSA, tennis club De Enk, and swimming pool De Schaeck are all within the village boundaries. The Puttense Bos and the extensive Veluwe nature start literally at the edge of the village, something resident A.p. confirms: "Has plenty of green. Very accessible, also via major roads."
Regarding accessibility: Putten has its own NS railway station on the Amersfoort-Zwolle line. The train takes you to Amersfoort in about 25 minutes and to Utrecht Centraal in under an hour. By car, you can quickly reach the A28 motorway towards Amersfoort or Zwolle. Bus routes connect the village with Nijkerk, Ermelo, and Harderwijk. Those specifically looking in the centre have everything within walking distance. If you're looking for more space, the outlying areas such as Huinen and Halvinkhuizen or the area around Nulde offer detached homes with more land. Bert does warn: "No nuisance from the neighbours, sometimes from chavs in the area." So honesty is required; not every corner of Putten is the same.
For which buyers is Putten a good choice?
With an average purchase price of €670,077, buying a home in Putten is not cheap. First-time buyers on a median income (the average disposable income here is €35,800) will struggle to get in without a substantial savings pot or existing equity. The neighbourhood is particularly attractive for families, with 3,595 households with children as the largest group, good schools, and plenty of outdoor space. Also, movers and seniors seeking peace on the Veluwe will find their place here. Bear in mind additional costs: transfer tax (2%), notary and valuation fees, and possibly overbidding in a tight market.

Auto-translated to English by AII'm satisfied with the neighbourhood and actually think everything is well organised! We do live near a school, so around start and end times, if you're unlucky, you can't get away because parents park in front of our dam.. that's really the only downside.
