Very beautiful neighbourhood in Groningen. Lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops. What is unpleasant is that there is often rubbish next to the bins. Furthermore, the neighbourhood has many nice small parks and you are within no time in a quiet natural environment where you can enjoy walking, running, cycling etc. All in all, this neighbourhood is perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is quite cosy, though sometimes dirty because rubbish isn't put in the bins, so hygiene isn't always great. Lots of students, so sometimes there aren't enough places to park your bike. There isn't really a neighbourhood association or other communities that I'm part of. The area also has a primary school, a university of applied sciences, a nice park, several playgrounds and plenty of other amenities. Definitely a safe neighbourhood, but the houses are very old. All in all, a great place to live.

Auto-translated to English by AIA good neighbourhood, but a lot of waste from the Orientals on the street.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a nice neighbourhood! Often there is rubbish from the shop in the street. Otherwise, it's a fun neighbourhood!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause of the many 'students' and junkies in my complex, I don't feel very safe.. also had a break-in at my previous home and now have very unpleasant neighbours. The housing association does nothing about it

About Diephuisstraat 28, Groningen
The asking price of €345,000 is close to the neighbourhood median of €325,000 and below the average of €372,948. At €5,227 per m², it's slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,698 per m², but that's typical for a well-maintained apartment in a popular area. Given the energy label C and the 1933 construction, the price seems in line with the market.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. It means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but you can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, about 28% of homes have label C, while 30% have D or lower.
The Professorenbuurt is mixed: many students and young adults, but also families. One resident says it's "perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers." There are several primary schools within walking distance, playgrounds, and a park nearby. However, only 12% of households have children, so it's not a typical family suburb.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle.
Residents generally feel safe. One review says: "Definitely a safe neighbourhood, but the houses are very old." The total number of crimes recorded in the area is 464, but without context per capita, it's hard to compare. The neighbourhood has a lively, youthful atmosphere.
The apartment was built in 1933, so it's an older property. Residents note that houses in the area are "very old." The energy label C suggests some modernisation, but you should expect typical pre-war features. The listing does not mention any recent renovations.
