Buying a home in Duin Zuid, Almere.
Duin Zuid is where you'll find plenty of young families with children, drawn to the spacious single-family homes with gardens that come standard here. The neighbourhood is still very much under construction, so you'll see cranes and new streets going up, but that also means schools and shops are following close behind. It sits right next to Almere Poort, giving you quick access to the city centre and the station. The area feels young and unfinished, which appeals to some buyers and feels unsettled to others.

What does Duin Zuid offer?
Almere built itself from scratch into a city of 220,000 people in just three decades, so you'll find plenty of homes from the 1980s and 1990s alongside newer neighbourhoods with contemporary design. The population is young and diverse, and your neighbours will likely come from dozens of countries. Many families choose Almere because you get real space for your money, and trains to Amsterdam leave every fifteen minutes. It's not a city of old charm and winding streets, but it's a place where you put down roots quickly because everyone here was once new too.
