Living in Regenboogbuurt Noord en Oost, Almere
Regenboogbuurt Noord en Oost is one of the older neighbourhoods of Almere, built in the 1980s when the city was still under development. This is evident in its layout: wide streets, plenty of greenery between homes, and a quiet, orderly structure clearly designed for families. The homes are predominantly terraced houses and semi-detached houses with gardens, giving the neighbourhood a ground-floor, residential character.
Resident E.B. Modderman describes it aptly: "Cosy neighbourhood, neighbours look out for each other, lots of green spaces nearby." This sense of mutual involvement is something you find less often in newer, anonymous neighbourhoods. The area has a working-class feel without appearing run-down. People know each other, children play on the streets, and the green strips are well maintained.
In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood is well provided for. Primary schools are within walking distance, a direct advantage for families. Residents give education a score of 8.0 out of 10, one of the highest sub-scores. Accessibility also scores highly (8.0): the neighbourhood is conveniently located relative to public transport in Almere, with bus connections to Almere Centrum and Almere Centrum station, from where you can quickly reach Amsterdam or Utrecht by train. For cars, the connection to the A6 via nearby access roads is well arranged. Daily shopping can be done at the nearby shopping centres in Regenboogbuurt, without having to travel far by car or bike.
The score for cleanliness (6.0) is the lowest sub-score, and that is fair: some parts of the neighbourhood show signs of age. Not every street is equally well maintained. Those used to the sleek appearance of newer districts should take this into account. But for those looking for a neighbourhood with character and social cohesion, this is where you'll find it.
Compared to Regenboogbuurt Zuid and Regenboogbuurt West, Noord en Oost has a slightly more subdued profile, with lower WOZ values but a similar neighbourhood atmosphere. For the full neighbourhood data and all resident reviews, see the main neighbourhood page for Regenboogbuurt Noord en Oost.
