Very good. Lots of friendly people and there's always something to do
Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about two years and there is more than enough access to shops/churches/schools etc, that was never a problem. However, this neighbourhood is poorly connected to public transport, which really should be better. This was a major reason for me to want to move, it was too far from e.g. Zernike, friends, or everything on the north side of the city. The neighbourhood always felt safe otherwise. Most of the nuisance came from schoolchildren during breaks at e.g. the shops and around the schools. They often don't put their rubbish in a bin, which I personally found very annoying. Other than that, the neighbourhood is perfectly fine.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's cosy, the neighbourhood is beautifully green. Shops nearby, public transport nearby and the A28 nearby. Also many schools, primary and secondary. Hoornse Plas is within cycling distance. Open-air swimming pool De Papiermolen is within walking distance. In 10 minutes by bike you're in the city centre, perfect!

About Camphuysenstraat 179, Groningen
The asking price of €247,500 is very close to the median of €249,000 for apartments in De Wijert. Homes in the neighbourhood sell in about 20 days on average, which suggests a fairly active market. Given the compact size (45 m²) and excellent energy label A, the price seems in line with what other similar properties go for.
The apartment has a floor area of 45 m², which is 44% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 80 m². It's a compact home, so it's best suited for a single person or a couple who don't need a lot of space.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means the home is well-insulated and you can expect relatively low energy costs. In De Wijert, only 13.3% of homes have label A, so this is a good find.
