Binckhorst, Den Haag
This apartment on Binckhorstlaan sits in an area that's very much in transition. Built in 2003, it has an A energy label and 70 m² of living space. The asking price of €424,500 is 33% below the neighbourhood average of €634,193, which makes it a keen entry point compared to other apartments in Den Haag.
Binckhorst is primarily an industrial area, and the two residents who reviewed it describe it as such. One calls it "an industrial estate with some houses that wasn't thought through," noting virtually no amenities, a lack of greenery, and a busy road that makes cycling dangerous. The other says it's "an industrial area with a few houses," with no supermarkets and quite a lot of litter. Both mention it feels unsafe in the evening. The neighbourhood has 2,075 residents, mostly young adults between 25 and 45, and a high proportion of single-person households. For more context, see the Binckhorst neighbourhood.
For daily groceries, the nearest supermarket is an Aldi about ten minutes' walk away, with an Ekoplaza and an Albert Heijn a bit further. There are several primary schools within walking distance: the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school is just a couple of streets away, and KC de Telescoop is also close by. A secondary school, Gymnasium Novum, is about a fifteen-minute walk. The area is well connected by bike and car, though the main road through the neighbourhood can be busy. For more on the wider area, see the municipality of Den Haag.

It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature. They are trying to make the neighbourhood nicer, though. It's easily accessible by bike and car, but that's also because there's a very busy road running through it. This makes some places dangerous for cyclists. There's a lot of litter, and it can be unsafe in the evening. Some lights don't work, and sometimes strange people are around. There isn't really a community since there are a lot of businesses in the area. There are also two reception centres that can sometimes cause nuisance in the evening and during the day (boys on fat bikes shouting things). This also makes safety less good, especially in the evening when there aren't many people around.
