Bernard Van Kreelpoort 16

The rent is 29% above the neighbourhood average of €1,625, but this is a larger, newer apartment (136 m², built in 2012) with a B label. The average rent per m² in the area is €15.68, so you're paying a premium for the size and condition. Whether it's fair depends on your priorities, but it's clearly at the top end of the local market.

The energy label is B, which is an official registration from EP-Online. A B label indicates a reasonably efficient home, meaning energy costs are likely to be moderate. It's not the most efficient (A), but it's better than average. The label doesn't tell you about the specific insulation or heating system, but it's a good sign for a 2012 build.

The Hoogvliet is just 69 metres away, so you can pop out for bread in seconds. Albert Heijn is 169 metres, Ekoplaza 200 metres, and both Boni and Aldi are about 294 metres. That means you have a choice of five supermarkets within a few minutes' walk, which is ideal for daily shopping.

There are several primary schools within a short walk. Al Amana is 472 metres away, De Plantage 481 metres, and Basisschool Dr C Steenblok 530 metres. Rehobothschool and Wereldkidz De Vlieger are a bit further at 764 metres. For secondary education, the nearest is about 1.2 km away.

Rental homes in Koopcentrum are let on average within 21 days, according to recent data. That suggests a fairly active rental market, so if you're interested, it's worth being prepared to move quickly. However, this is just an average, and the actual time can vary.

Koopcentrum has about 1,555 residents, with a high proportion of older people: 37% are 65 or over, and 52% of households are single-person. Only 8% of households have children. It's a very urban area with a high address density, so expect a lively, central atmosphere with lots of amenities nearby.
