Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Binckhorstlaan is part of a 2003 complex in a neighbourhood that is very much in transition.

For context, this is one of the more affordable apartments in Den Haag.
Binckhorst is primarily an industrial area with a small residential component. Based on two reviews, residents give it a 4.19 out of 5. One resident says: "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." Another adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." The neighbourhood has 2,075 residents, mostly young adults (25-45) and singles, with few families. The area is very urban (address density 3,743) and has a high crime rate. For more on the area, see the Binckhorst neighbourhood.

Primary schools include the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school (about a five-minute walk) and KC de Telescoop (about an eight-minute walk).

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.
