It keeps getting worse, lots of loiterers, both in the evening and at night, rubbish is thrown everywhere, bags are not collected so rats run over them, homeless people in the building, people urinate everywhere. It's too sad for words there.

About De Sterke Arm 165, Veenendaal
The asking price of €299,500 is 26% below the average asking price in Engelenburg (€406,315) and also below the median (€431,200). However, the apartment is smaller than average (60 m² vs 89 m²) and has an E energy label, which means higher energy costs.
