Egmond at sea

Egmond consists of three villages:
Egmond aan Zee
,
Egmond aan den Hoef
and
Egmond-Binnen
. Egmond aan Zee has a history as a fishing village, which in the early 19th century increasingly turned into a wonderful place to come and spend vacations.

It is still a pleasant family seaside resort where young and old feel at home, where it is lively, but the tranquility of nature is always close by. There are plenty of nice small-scale recreational facilities in the area.

Throughout the year, visitors from home and abroad come to our municipality for a day trip or an extended(er) stay. Consequently, the municipality has much to offer. Beach, forest,
dunes, polder area
and cozy villages are the biggest crowd pullers.

Our recreational facilities, museums, Visitors currently, guesthouses, campgrounds,
shopping facilities
and many others are consistent with this.

Attractive in all seasons

The Three Egmonds are attractive all year round, both for sporty outdoorsmen and for visitors who love peace, beauty, culture and history.

In Egmond-Binnen, the abbey attracts visitors from far and wide.

In the beautiful historic core of Egmond aan den Hoef lie the foundations of what was once the cleanest and largest castle in Holland.

White sandy beaches

Bergen County has an area of nearly 120 square kilometers and nearly 32,000 residents.

All the villages of the municipality have in common that they are near beautiful white sandy beaches, vast dune areas and here and there some forest.

Residents from neighboring communities enjoy taking advantage of the many recreational and cultural facilities the municipality has to offer.

Municipality of Bergen

Since 2001, the three Egmonden have not been an independent municipality, but fall under the name of Bergen.

The municipality consists of several villages and hamlets these are: Aagtdorp – Bergen – Bergen aan Zee – Bregtdorp – Camperduin – Catrijp – Egmond-Binnen – Egmond aan den Hoef – Egmond aan Zee – Groet – Hargen – Rinnegom – Schoorldam and Schoorl – Wimmenum.

The merger explicitly promised that each village would be allowed to keep its own identity, and this is also very important to the Egmonder.

Some technical data:

Housing in our villages For each village, you will see four pie charts. These show the percentage of homes by ownership, occupancy, type and construction period. Figure 4 is Egmond aan den Hoef (1517 homes), Figure 5 is Egmond aan Zee (2908 homes) and Figure 6 is Egmond Binnen (1131 homes).

Properties for sale are owned by the occupant(s) or used as second homes. Rental properties are not occupied by the property owner. Rental housing is divided into (1) housing owned by a housing corporation or other institution. And (2) rental housing owned by companies, individuals and investors.

Housing by occupancy:

A property is occupied if, according to the Basic Registration of Persons, at least 1 person was registered at the corresponding address. All other dwellings are considered unoccupied.

Houses by type:

A dwelling is multifamily when it forms a whole building together with other dwellings or (business) premises. This includes flats, gallery, porch, downstairs and upstairs houses, apartments and houses over commercial premises. All other homes are of the single-family type.

Houses by year of construction:

The year of construction is the year in which a property, in which a home is located, was originally completed. Construction year has two values here: (1) built in or after the year 2000 and (2) built before the year 2000.
