What does Stedenwijk Midden-west 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.
