Prins Hendrikbuurt, Zaanstad
NeighbourhoodThis 1933 terraced house in Zaandam's Prins Hendrikbuurt has a lived-in feel from the moment you step inside. With 112 m² of floor space and a 77 m² plot, it's a compact but well-proportioned family home. The energy label B means it's reasonably efficient for its age. At €400,000, the asking price is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €410,636, making it a keen option compared to other terraced houses in Zaanstad.
Prins Hendrikbuurt is a mixed, urban area with a strong DIY spirit. One resident describes it as a "Volksklusbuurt aan de zaan", a working-class neighbourhood where people are generally friendly but could do with more community spirit and tidiness. They note that "almost everyone has a fast life here" and that the streets could be cleaner. On the plus side, they mention primary schools (though very full), secondary education within cycling distance, and plenty of amenities: restaurants, cafés, a supermarket, and the river Zaan for walks. The neighbourhood feels reasonably safe, and residents would help if needed. Green space is somewhat lacking, which is typical for the Randstad. The area is densely populated with 3,864 addresses per km², and most homes were built before 1945. For more context, see the neighbourhood Prins Hendrikbuurt.
For your morning bread, Dekamarkt is just around the corner, with Vomar a couple of streets away and Albert Heijn a ten-minute walk. Primary school OBS Herman Gorter is on your doorstep, and ICBS het Zaanplein is a five-minute walk. Secondary schools are a short bike ride away. The municipality Zaanstad offers a lively city centre nearby, with restaurants and cafés just around the corner.

Messy neighbourhood, generally nice people but could do with more pulling together (including myself), almost everyone has a fast life here, it would be nice if people were sometimes less rushed and took it easy doing something for someone else, this could be something very small like greeting someone kindly or letting someone go ahead. The neighbourhood could also be a bit tidier in some places, there is rubbish lying in the streets, also from all the DIY that goes on a lot. Furthermore, there are primary schools in the area but they are very full. Also secondary education which is not far by bike. There are restaurants, cafés, lunch spots, a supermarket, bike repair shop, hairdresser, much more and the city of course, which is very close. Also there is regularly a nice party at the Burcht and the river Zaan is nice to walk along. The neighbourhood feels reasonably safe, if something unpleasant were to happen that is seen by residents, I am quite sure they would come to help if needed. Green space is unfortunately somewhat lacking, in principle logical because it's the Randstad but I think it could easily be a lot greener, especially the gardens.
