Bedrijventerrein Frezersplaats, Almere

Living in Bedrijventerrein Frezersplaats

Bedrijventerrein Frezersplaats is town feel without the crowds — amenities close by, calm on the street, and most of its 49 homes are houses rather than apartments — front doors, gardens, street parking.

With just 1,289 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 Frezersplaats

The average home value (WOZ) in Bedrijventerrein Frezersplaats is €391,000, which puts it at #73 of 165 neighborhoods in Almere — 4% pricier than most of the city. That premium is the location speaking. For scale: Almere's cheapest buurt averages €169,000 and its priciest €1,166,000, so Bedrijventerrein Frezersplaats sits in the middle of the pack.

The direction of the market: between 2022 and 2025 the average WOZ value here rose from €333,000 to €391,000, up 17% — slower than the city as a whole (+28%). WOZ values lag the market by about a year, but the trend itself is reliable.

With 82% 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 Frezersplaats is dominated by established households in the 45-to-65 bracket (32% of its 115 residents), followed by 25-to-45 year olds at 28%. Households split into 39% singles and 26% families with children — a real mix rather than one lifestyle. The average household counts 2.1 people.

Daily errands, coffee and dinner

Day to day: the nearest large supermarket is about 11 minutes' walk; dining out means a short trip: only 1 café or restaurant sit within a kilometer.

The practical checklist most buyers forget to make: pharmacy 11 min walk · GP 11 min · hospital 3.1 km · library 2.8 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: 3 primary schools within a kilometer means real choice — and short bike rides; daycare is well covered (5 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 an 8-minute bike ride, which Dutch teenagers do in all weather.

Getting around

Getting around: the station is a 10-minute cycle, standard Dutch commuting range; a highway on-ramp 0.3 km away makes car trips easy — check whether through-traffic noise reaches the street you're considering; car ownership is moderate (1.0 per household).

Energy and running costs

Since 90% 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 Frezersplaats

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.
