The practical checklist most buyers forget to make: pharmacy 5 min walk · GP 5 min · hospital 2.9 km · library 1.9 km · 2 cinemas 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 5 minutes on foot; daycare is well covered (6 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 4-minute bike ride, which Dutch teenagers do in all weather.
Getting around
