Astronomische Buurt, Hilversum
NeighbourhoodThis 1933 terraced house on Orionlaan sits in Hilversum's Astronomische Buurt, a green and family-friendly pocket of the city. With 117 m² of living space and a 183 m² plot, it's a generous home for its type. The price of €769,000 is 59% above the neighbourhood average of €484,600, which puts it on the high side, but then it's also 30% larger than the typical home here. For context, terraced houses in Hilversum vary widely.
Residents give the neighbourhood Astronomische Buurt an 8.02 out of 10 based on four reviews. One resident calls it "a lovely green neighbourhood" with many playgrounds and grass fields, plus Seinhorst supermarket right there. Another says it's "cosy" with friendly neighbours and always something fun going on. But a third notes it's "going downhill due to foreign Dutch people and drug dealers". The neighbourhood is densely populated (2,741 addresses per km²) and mostly consists of family homes (84% single-family, 68% owner-occupied).
For groceries, you have Albert Heijn and Hoogvliet just a couple of streets away, and Jumbo a bit further. Schools are also close: Lorentzschool and Basisschool de Wilge are both about a ten-minute walk, and there are secondary schools like Lucent College and Hilfertsheem College nearby. The municipality Hilversum offers plenty of green space and a train station 1.9 km away.

Auto-translated to English by AIGood, lots of friends and my work is in the neighbourhood. The residents are 9/10 times very friendly and there's always something fun going on.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in this neighbourhood for 5 years, I think it's a lovely green neighbourhood! There are also many playgrounds, which the kids love! There are also many grass fields where you can play with the kids. And Seinhorst is right in the neighbourhood, so you're sure to have a supermarket, Etos, Gal&Gal, Blokker and a car park available.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful green neighbourhood, but there are many roads with too few traffic lights to cross safely. Lots of playgrounds for children, a skate park and many grassy areas to play or walk the dog. A cosy neighbourhood that is accessible to almost everyone!
