Living in Staatsliedenwijk West, Almere
Staatsliedenwijk West is a quiet, largely residential neighbourhood on the west side of the Staatsliedenwijk in Almere Stad. The streets are predominantly green, with plenty of parks and playgrounds between the homes. Residents give the neighbourhood a 7 for green space and a 7 for appearance, which matches the picture you see on the ground: wide pavements, shrubbery and a reasonably well-maintained public space.
The homes mostly date from the 1980s and have typical Almere features: terraced houses with front and back gardens, quiet residential streets and little through traffic. The neighbourhood has around 685 residents spread over 301 homes, resulting in a relatively low density. The largest age group is 25 to 45 years (245 residents), indicating a mix of young couples and families with children. Single-person households form the largest household group (145), and only 28% of residents are married.
In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood scores a 5 out of 10, and that is fair. The immediate area has few shops. For daily groceries, you rely on the nearby shopping centre Staatsliedenhof or shopping centre De Belfort, both within cycling distance. Primary schools in the immediate area score remarkably well: residents give education a 9, indicating that local schools are perceived as good. For secondary education, you need to go to other districts in Almere Stad.
Accessibility scores a 5, and that also deserves explanation. Almere Centrum station can be reached by bicycle in about ten to fifteen minutes. By car, the A6 towards Amsterdam or Lelystad is easily accessible via the main roads of Almere Stad. Bus connections are available but limited in frequency. For those commuting daily to Amsterdam, the travel time by train from Almere Centrum is about 25 minutes, but the bike or bus ride to the station adds to that.
The perception of safety scores a 6, and residents are not unanimously positive. Fleur Schaareman writes: "In the playground opposite my house, there are often loitering youths, even late at night, and they regularly block the cycle path with scooters and the like." This kind of nuisance in the evening is reported in more neighbourhoods in Almere Stad and is something to consider if you have children or spend a lot of time outside in the evenings. The community also scores a 5, suggesting that social cohesion is limited and the neighbourhood has more of a transient character than a close-knit village atmosphere.
Compared to Staatsliedenwijk Oost and Staatsliedenwijk Midden, this western part has a quieter character but fewer direct amenities in the immediate vicinity. If you are looking for more neighbourhood life and walking distance to shops, you would do well to compare those neighbourhoods as well.
