Transwijk-Zuid, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on De Boomkweker in Utrecht's Transwijk-Zuid neighbourhood is a compact but well-designed home. The listing does not state the year of construction or energy label, so some details about the home itself are missing. At €432,000, the asking price is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €592,543, which is keen given the smaller floor area of 56 m². For context, apartments in Utrecht vary widely in price and size.
Transwijk-Zuid is a densely built neighbourhood with a very high address density (3,711 per km²). The population is young, with 59% aged 25-45, and most households are single-person (50%). One resident describes the area as experiencing 'impoverishment', noting that 'the houses are going to the immigrant community and status holders AZC. Neighbourhood is getting dirtier, stinks, neighbourhood no longer has neighbour contacts, everyone just does their own thing.' This is based on a single review, so it's a personal perspective. The neighbourhood Transwijk-Zuid has a mix of housing, mostly built after 2010 (64%).
For groceries, the Coop is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. There are several primary schools nearby, including OBS Maaspleinschool and De Wereldwijzer.
