Auto-translated to English by AIQuite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach, for example. Lovely people around you. It's a 5-minute walk from the Albert Heijn. There are also small shops within walking distance. There's a good driving school, Phillipo.
Auto-translated to English by AIA normal neighbourhood, not busy or anything like that. Lots of shops nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the hygienic condition is concerned, there is much room for improvement. This by making offenders clean up their own mess and imposing much higher fines. This does mean that there should be better monitoring and that the supervisory service should not just drive by. This prevents nuisance from pests and pollution. But it also gives a safer feeling for the entire neighbourhood.

About Fahrenheitstraat 425, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €325,000 is 28% below the average asking price in the Valkenboskwartier (€451,726) and also below the median of €425,000. Given the 80 m² floor area, that works out to about €4,063 per m², while the neighbourhood average per m² is €5,136. So it is priced keenly, though the energy label G and pre-war construction (1912) mean you should factor in higher running costs.
The Valkenboskwartier is a very urban area (address density 8,568 per km²) with a mix of residents: many singles (3,555 one-person households) and a fair number of families (1,445 households with children). Reviews are mixed: some praise the central location and accessibility, while others mention noise from a busy road and occasional unpleasant smells. It's a lively, diverse neighbourhood.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus or car to reach it.
A PLUS supermarket is just around the corner (220 m), and an Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk (362 m). There are also small local shops within walking distance. A GP and a restaurant are both very close (0.4 km and 0.2 km respectively). The library is about a ten-minute walk away (0.6 km).
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient, so you can expect high heating and electricity costs. The home was built in 1912, and in the neighbourhood, 40.2% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
The neighbourhood recorded 614 total crimes in the latest data. Without a breakdown, it's hard to judge safety precisely, but the area is urban and busy. One resident review mentions it's "tidy" and has "lovely people around you", while another notes noise from a busy road.
