The neighbourhood is active but not unsafe; there are shops and amenities within walking distance, so you can easily buy a döner and do your shopping at Albert Heijn. There are a few homeless people here who are a bit chaotic, but if you mind your own business, nothing happens.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery often nuisance from people (foreign) who share houses here with too many people. And leave rubbish everywhere on the street. And sometimes I don't feel safe on the street.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for 3 years and nothing weird has ever happened here, really a quiet neighbourhood. Neighbours are really kind and talk to each other normally.

About De Genestetlaan 84, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €285,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €302,964 and the median of €292,000. Given the 81 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €3,519, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €3,939. So it's priced keenly compared to other homes in Laakkwartier-Oost.
The home has energy label E, which is less efficient than modern standards. In the neighbourhood, only about 22.7% of homes have label A or better, while 48.5% have label D or lower. So an E label is fairly typical for a 1930s apartment here, but you can expect higher heating costs compared to a more efficient home.
Residents have mixed views. One says it's "active but not unsafe" and that minding your own business is fine. Another reports nuisance from overcrowded houses and litter, sometimes feeling unsafe. A third says it's "really a quiet neighbourhood" with kind neighbours. The total crime count is 580 incidents, which is relatively high, but many residents feel safe day-to-day.
