Not surprisingly, the capital of the Netherlands is also its largest city. At around 882,600, Amsterdam has over 200,000 inhabitants more than the second-largest city in the country, Rotterdam. The Hague and Utrecht, the third and fourth-largest cities in the Netherlands, together have approximately as many inhabitants as Amsterdam alone.

Amsterdam and the pressure on the housing market

A rapidly growing city, Amsterdam’s population increased from roughly 755.6 thousand to around 873.3 thousand in the last decade. This has created pressure on the real estate market, where average rent and housing prices have skyrocketed. In the first quarter of 2010, the average rent of residential property amounted to roughly 16.32 euros per square meter. In the first quarter of 2021, this had increased to over 21,76 euros per square meter.

 2030 Outlook 

In the nearby future, Amsterdam is set to remain the Netherlands’ largest city. According to a recent forecast, by 2030 Amsterdam will have broken the barrier of one million inhabitants. Rotterdam, Den Haag and Utrecht are forecast to grow too, albeit at a much lower pace. In 2030, Rotterdam is expected to reach just under 700,000 inhabitants.

This statistic shows the largest urban settlements in the Netherlands in 2021. In 2021, around 1.13 million people lived in Amsterdam, making it the largest city in the Netherlands. Population of the Netherlands With the global financial crisis in 2008 as well as the Euro zone crisis, many countries in Europe suffered a great economic impact. In spite of the crisis, the Netherlands maintained a stable economy over the past decade. The country's unemployment rate, for example, has been kept at a relatively low level in comparison to other countries in Europe also affected by the economic crisis. In 2014, Spain had an unemployment rate of more than 25 percent. The Netherlands' population has also seen increases in growth in comparison to previous years, with the figures slowly decreasing since 2011. As a result of the increase in population, the degree of urbanization - which is the share of the population living in urban areas - has increased, while the size of the labor force in the Netherlands has been relatively stable over the past decade. The population density of inhabitants per square kilometer in the Netherlands has also increased. Large cities in the Netherlands have experienced the impact of the population density growth and increase in the size of the labor force first hand. Three cities in the Netherlands have over half a million residents (as can be seen above). Additionally, more and more visitors are coming to the kingdom: The number of tourists in the Netherlands has increased significantly since 2001, a change which has also impacted the country's metropolises. Due to its location and affordable accommodation prices, the country’s tourism industry is developing and the largest cities in the Netherlands are taking advantage of it.

Population in largest city in Netherlands was reported at 1174025 in 2023, according to the World Bank collection of development indicators, compiled from officially recognized sources. Netherlands - Population in largest city - actual values, historical data, forecasts and projections were sourced from the World Bank on March of 2025.

This statistic shows the average number of months a house is for sale in the largest cities in the Netherlands in the second quarter of 2017. In the second quarter of 2017, it would take approximately 10 months to sell a house in Amsterdam. In the four largest municipalities, the demand of housing outweighs the supply. In December 2016, the average number of houses for sale in the municipality of Amsterdam was approximately 1,800 with this number reaching an average of 4,300 in December 2014.

This statistic displays the top 10 cities with the largest total fashion shop floor area in the Netherlands in 2014. In 2014, fashion stores in Tilburg had a combined shop floor area of approximately 40,000 square meters.

Government city The Hague was the most densely populated city in the Netherlands in 2019, with a population density of nearly 6,500 people per square kilometer. Perhaps surprisingly, Amsterdam is not the most densely populated city in the country, ranking fourth on the list of most populous cities in the Netherlands in 2019.

According to this population forecast, in 2030 Amsterdam will remain the largest city in the Netherlands. It is forecast that the capital will have over one million inhabitants in 2030. Rotterdam, currently the second-largest city in the country, will keep its spot. By 2030, the population of Rotterdam is expected to reach just under 700,000 people.

There were twice more non-residential units constructed in Amsterdam than in Utrecht in 2022. Meanwhile, there were roughly 100 new commercial buildings in The Hague, and 72 in Rotterdam that year.

In 2023, Zuid-Holland was the most populated province in the Netherlands, with over 3.8 million inhabitants. That was over 800,000 inhabitants more than runner-up Noord-Holland, the province in which also the capital Amsterdam is located. That year, Amsterdam’s population alone made up 863,000 of Noord-Holland’s nearly three million inhabitants.

 Zuid-Holland   

Zuid-Holland’s largest city is Rotterdam, home to approximately 645,000 people. The third largest city in the Netherlands, Den Haag (or The Hague, as internationals would know it) is also located in Zuid-Holland. The city, which hosts the Dutch government as well as many international organizations, reached a population of roughly 538,000 in 2019.

Utrecht and Eindhoven  

 Completing the top five of the largest cities in the Netherlands are Utrecht and Eindhoven, located in the provinces Utrecht and Noord-Brabant. The city of Utrecht had nearly 353,000 inhabitants in 2019, or roughly one quarter of the entire population of the province bearing the same name. Eindhoven’s population reached nearly 232,000 that year, but as Noord-Brabant boasts two more of the largest cities in the country, Eindhoven plays a less central role in its own province as Utrecht does, despite being home to both Philips and one of the most successful football clubs in Dutch history, PSV Eindhoven.

The Netherlands luxury residential real estate market, encompassing apartments, condominiums, villas, and landed houses across major cities like Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and The Hague, exhibits robust growth potential. With a current market size exceeding €1 billion (a reasonable estimation based on common luxury market proportions relative to overall housing markets and a 3%+ CAGR), the sector is projected to experience a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 3% from 2025 to 2033. This expansion is fueled by several key drivers: a thriving Dutch economy attracting high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), increasing demand for premium properties in prime locations, limited supply of luxury homes, and a preference for sustainable and high-quality construction.

While potential restraints such as government regulations and economic fluctuations exist, the overall market outlook remains positive, particularly in Amsterdam, which consistently attracts significant investor interest. Leading developers like BPD, Provast, and Heijmans play a crucial role in shaping the market, alongside international players like Christie's International Real Estate and Sotheby's International Realty.
