Amersfoort is a city in the Utrecht province of the Netherlands, situated on the river Eem. It lies on flat terrain at an elevation of just three metres above sea level. This municipality serves as a major regional hub, with its economy and urban identity built around its historic standing and its position as one of the primary railway junctions in the country.
Living in Amersfoort is generally more expensive than the national average. The local housing stock is distributed across several distinct districts, with the modern northern suburb of Vathorst-De Laak holding the largest share of homes, priced close to the city average. In contrast, the historic centre of Stadskern and the post-war neighbourhood of Nieuwland offer more affordable housing. The most expensive homes by a wide margin are found in De Berg-Noord, where prices far exceed those in the rest of the city, while the most affordable properties are concentrated in Liendert.
