Rustenburg, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 90 m² apartment on Doldersestraat sits in the Rustenburg neighbourhood of Den Haag. Built in 1926, it has an energy label G, so heating costs will be high.

Rustenburg is a densely populated area with a mix of pre-war housing and a lively street scene. Residents describe it as "reasonably pleasant to live" but note concerns about crime and loitering youths. One resident says: "The flat I live in is nice to live in, but towards the Apeldoornselaan/Dierenselaan it is really going downhill." Another mentions: "Our biggest concern is crime. My husband's work van has been broken into three times." The neighbourhood has a high density of addresses and a young population, with many single-person households. For more context, see the neighbourhood Rustenburg.

The flat I live in is nice to live in, but towards the Apeldoornselaan/Dierenselaan it is really going downhill. Next to and behind the flat, fires have been set several times, which certainly gives the older residents an unpleasant feeling. Zuiderpark is relatively close, but many young people hang out there, so people don't like to go there anymore. Towards the Leyenburg district it's fine, so the walks go that way and the shopping is done there. All in all, it's reasonably pleasant to live, although there are some points of concern due to loitering youths. Hopefully something can be done about that; cameras are not allowed due to privacy, but unfortunately that means the youths who set fires are still out of sight. The flat is cleaned by a cleaning company, but it's a shame that some residents don't take hygiene so seriously. Accessibility is good with trams 4 and 6 right outside the door. Shopping centre within walking distance, so that's fine too. So if it doesn't get any worse, it's a good place to live here.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe would like to contribute to improvements. Crime Our biggest concern is crime. My husband's work van has been broken into three times. Once nothing was taken, but the other two times thousands of euros worth of tools were stolen. Additionally, our cargo bike was stolen and the screen of our electric bike was taken. For a young family, this has a huge impact. Safety We live above the café/nightclub where an explosive device was placed on the windows a few weeks ago. This was a shocking event that further heightened our feelings of insecurity in the neighbourhood. Other problems in the neighbourhood We also experience a lot of nuisance from dog poop. It's almost a miracle if we or our children don't step in a pile when getting into the car. The neglected boats along the quay are also a problem. They seem to attract homeless people, and I often hear suspicious noises coming from the boats when I have to get something from the car in the evening.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's safe but quite far from the city. Public transport is always slow and breaks down. Besides, there's no nature and my neighbourhood is extremely noisy.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is busy. Also at night. Many foreigners and very noisy.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur neighbourhood is a mix of different cultures, so far we feel very much at home here, we keep an eye on each other and we enjoy living on our street. The only downside is really the parking situation, an absolute nightmare

About Doldersestraat 25, 'S-Gravenhage
At €275,000, this apartment is priced below the neighbourhood median of €299,500 and the average of €316,143. Given the 90 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €3,056, which is well under the neighbourhood average of €4,376 per m². So it's a keen price, though the energy label G means higher running costs.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. In the neighbourhood, 58.3% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war building from 1926.
Residents have mixed feelings. One says it's "reasonably pleasant to live" but mentions fires set by youths and loitering. Another reports multiple thefts from a work van and a stolen cargo bike. The total number of crimes in the neighbourhood is 252, which is relatively high for a densely populated area.
Trams 4 and 6 stop right outside the door, according to residents. The nearest train station is 3.4 km away, so for longer journeys you'd rely on the tram or a bike.
Yes, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner (291 m), and a Jumbo is a couple of streets away (733 m). There are also several other supermarkets within a ten-minute walk.
Rustenburg has a mix of households: about 920 with children and 1,525 single-person households. Schools are within walking distance, but some residents express concerns about safety and nuisance from dog poop and loitering youths.
The building was constructed in 1926, so it's nearly a century old. The energy label G suggests it hasn't been modernised extensively. You'd expect original features but also higher energy bills.
