About Barentszstraat 37B, 'S-Gravenhage
The rent of €2,750 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €2,602 and the median of €2,650. However, at 111 m² it's larger than the average rental (93 m²), so the price per m² (€24.77) is actually below the neighbourhood average of €31.20 per m². So you're getting more space for your money.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating costs, especially in winter. The apartment dates from 1880, so it likely has single glazing and poor insulation. Budget accordingly for energy bills.
Zeeheldenkwartier has 749 reported crimes, which is relatively high for a dense urban area. Some residents mention crime as a downside, but others find it a beautiful neighbourhood. It's worth checking recent crime statistics and visiting at different times of day.
The nearest train station is 2.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the area is very well served by trams and buses given its high urban density. You'll likely rely on those for longer journeys.
Yes, a park or public garden is just a five-minute walk away (0.5 km). That's handy for a quick escape from the city bustle.
In Zeeheldenkwartier, rented homes are taken off the market after an average of 28 days. That suggests reasonable demand, but not extreme urgency.
