Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats, Almere

Living in Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats

Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats is densely built and genuinely urban, and the housing is dominated by single-family houses (94%), which is what draws settlers rather than passers-through.

With just 1,065 residents per km², this is space by Dutch standards.

Almere is the Netherlands' youngest city — planned, spacious and car-friendly, with newer housing stock than almost anywhere else in the country. Many residents commute: Amsterdam is around 25 minutes by train, which is exactly the trade many buyers here have chosen.

The housing market in Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats

The average home value (WOZ) in Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats is €554,000, which puts it at #20 of 165 neighborhoods in Almere — 47% pricier than most of the city. You pay for the location here. For scale: Almere's cheapest buurt averages €169,000 and its priciest €1,166,000, so Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats sits among the city's pricier neighbourhoods.

The direction of the market: between 2022 and 2025 the average WOZ value here rose from €439,000 to €554,000, up 26% — roughly in step with the rest of the city. WOZ values lag the market by about a year, but the trend itself is reliable.

With 66% of homes owner-occupied, this is a settled buyers' neighborhood — homes change hands regularly, and you can usually find recent comparable sales on the same street to anchor your bid. Settled also means slower: owners here tend to stay, so the best houses may only list once a decade.

Who lives here

Demographically, Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats is a young-adult neighborhood — the 25-to-45 group outnumbers everyone else (32% of its 110 residents), followed by 45-to-65 year olds at 27%. More than half of all households (60%) are single-person — this is a neighborhood of independents, not minivans. The average household counts 1.6 people.

Daily errands, coffee and dinner

Day to day: plan your groceries: the nearest large supermarket is 1.2 km away; this is not a going-out neighborhood — the cafés are elsewhere.

The practical checklist most buyers forget to make: pharmacy 14 min walk · GP 14 min · hospital 3.9 km · library 3.6 km · 1 cinema within 5 km. None of these will decide a purchase on their own, but a GP taking new patients nearby is the kind of thing you only miss after moving.

Families and schools

For families: the nearest primary school is 16 minutes on foot; daycare is well covered (3 locations nearby) — though Dutch waiting lists mean you register the week you know you're expecting, not the week you need it; secondary school is a 6-minute bike ride, which Dutch teenagers do in all weather.

Getting around

Getting around: the station is a 5-minute cycle, standard Dutch commuting range; a highway on-ramp 1.5 km away makes car trips easy — check whether through-traffic noise reaches the street you're considering; households here average 1.7 cars, so assume driveways and parking are part of daily logistics.

Energy and running costs

Since 88% of the stock predates 2000, always check the energy label of a specific listing — the difference between label C and label F on an average home here is easily a few thousand euros a year in heating, and it changes what you can sensibly bid.

Before you bid in Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats

Before you bid in Bedrijventerrein Felsersplaats: in a premium buurt the risk isn't buying a bad home, it's overpaying for a good one — anchor your bid on recent sales of comparable homes, not on the asking price.

None of these averages can tell you whether the specific house you found is fairly priced — that depends on its size, energy label, state of maintenance and the recent sales around it. That is exactly what a free HomeReview report checks, in about 10 seconds, for any Dutch address.
