People keep to themselves, little to no nuisance, only parking is minimal.
Auto-translated to English by AITransvaal is a working-class neighbourhood, which can be very cosy but also very busy. Often arguments due to Eastern Europeans and a lot of rubbish on the street and around the container. Perhaps the warning could also be in Turkish/Bulgarian. The municipality does work very hard to keep it clean. Many amenities in the form of shops with foreign products, the Haagse Markt, etc. Enough schools. There could be more green spaces. Many elderly people live completely alone in a 5/6-room house, while on the other hand entire families have to make do with 1/2 rooms. These elderly people should really be offered a better deal: a smaller home, but without suddenly having to pay much more rent. Plenty of play areas, both for little ones and older children (football cages, for example). The community centre also offers many opportunities for both children and adults. Various activities to keep the youth off the streets. In short, I enjoy living here very much.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn this neighbourhood there are several playgrounds, and many tram and bus stops. So it is easy to reach and there is the possibility to move around quickly if you want to go somewhere and you don't have a front garden. There are also many small shops and supermarkets in the area. Dentists, GPs, pharmacies, shops, supermarkets etc. are all in the neighbourhood (within walking distance). The same goes for primary schools, there are many different primary schools in the area. I am largely satisfied with the community. Especially those on my street and around it. Unfortunately, there is occasionally some litter around the waste containers in the neighbourhood. Overall, I am satisfied with my neighbourhood.

About Fischerstraat 395, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 25% above the neighbourhood average of €338,886, so it is on the high side. However, this apartment is larger (102 m²) and newer (2004) than many homes in the area, with an A+ energy label. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €3,958, which makes this listing's per-m² price about €4,167, slightly above average but in line with its modern specs.
The neighbourhood has many tram and bus stops, making it easy to get around. The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, so for longer journeys you would take a tram or bus to the station. Residents mention that public transport is convenient and frequent.
The apartment has an energy label A+, which is very efficient. This means low heating costs and a well-insulated home. In the neighbourhood, only 20% of homes have A+ or better, so this is a strong point.
Yes, several primary schools are within walking distance, such as De Parachute and Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer (both about 3.3,3.6 km away). Secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are also within reach. Residents confirm there are enough schools in the area.
One resident notes that parking is minimal, so it can be tight. The apartment does not include a private parking spot, so you would rely on street parking. It is worth checking with the municipality about permits and availability.
