Noordpolderbuurt, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 86 m² apartment on the Drijfriemstraat was built in 1925 and has an F energy label, so heating costs will be something to factor in. The asking price of €275,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €290,397 and sits below the median of €280,000. For context, that's in line with what other apartments in Den Haag typically go for.
Residents describe the neighbourhood Noordpolderbuurt as a quiet, pleasant neighbourhood where people have known each other for years. One resident says: "Everyone grew up together, making the neighbourhood feel like one close-knit community." Another notes: "It's a neighbourhood with a bad reputation, but it's not that bad actually." The area is densely populated, over 5,600 addresses per km², and most homes are pre-war. There's plenty of greenery, with a park just a couple of streets away.
For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Aldi and Ekoplaza a five-minute walk away. The nearest primary school, Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer, is a ten-minute walk, and there are several others within easy reach. The municipality Den Haag offers excellent public transport, with a train station 1.9 km away, about a 20-minute walk or short cycle.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Taco Verbeek NVM Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

The neighbourhood feels safe, both during the day and in the evening, and there is a relaxed atmosphere. The homes are generally of good quality and well-maintained. The streets are clean and hygienic, which further enhances living comfort. There is also plenty of greenery in the area; the nature and parks make it a nice place to walk or unwind. In addition, there are sufficient amenities in the neighbourhood, making daily life easy and pleasant. Whether it's shops, schools, or other important facilities: everything is easily accessible. The accessibility of the neighbourhood is excellent, whether by public transport, car, or bike. In short: the Noordpolderbuurt is for me a quiet, safe, and social neighbourhood where people enjoy living and where the atmosphere feels positive and familiar.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a decent neighbourhood with plenty of parks and other amenities. However, there are quite a few problems in the area, such as nuisance and dangerous people who harass you. Additionally, it's often dirty because rubbish isn't collected often enough. Despite all this, I'm quite satisfied with living in this neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is very cosy and you feel at home here. Good communication with neighbours. Lots of shops in the area. Easy to travel by public transport. Close to the city centre, which is of course very nice. There is also a forest nearby where you can explore nature. Fun activities for children, like going to the petting zoo. There are also community centres where you can meet people and do fun activities. In short, this is where you want to live.

Auto-translated to English by AIIf something ever goes wrong, it's not immediately 'yes police', but we usually talk it out among ourselves. We trust each other that someone won't immediately be reported if, for example, they make noise. Usually we just address the neighbour directly instead of making a big deal out of it.
Auto-translated to English by AII’ve lived in Laak as an international student for over a year now and I had great experiences with the people and amenities available. Everyone speaks English and I have experienced no harassment about not being Dutch.

About Drijfriemstraat 3B, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €275,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €290,397 and the median of €279,999. Given the 86 m² floor area, that works out to about €3,198 per m², which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €3,998 per m². So it's priced keenly for the area.
The energy label is F, which is one of the lower ratings. That means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war building.
Residents give the neighbourhood an average score of 8.17 out of 10. One resident says it feels safe both day and night, with a relaxed atmosphere.
