Centrum, Vlaardingen
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Gedempte Biersloot sits right in the middle of Vlaardingen's lively centre. At 68 m² it's a compact home, but the location makes up for it, shops, cafés and the market square are all on your doorstep. The flat has an energy label C, which is reasonable for a 1939 building. With a price of €270,000, it's 23% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, making it a keen buy compared to other apartments in Vlaardingen.
The Centrum neighbourhood is densely built and very urban, over 3,900 addresses per km². It's a mix of young professionals, older residents and families, with many single-person households. One resident sums it up: "It's good but could be better!", they mention issues with waste and drug users, but as a reasonably large-built man they don't feel unsafe. Many neighbours do feel less safe, and the resident misses the trees and nature that used to be there. It's an honest, lived-in review that gives a real flavour of the area. For more on the area, see the municipality Vlaardingen page.
For your morning bread, Dirk is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools nearby: IKC 't Palet is on your doorstep, and IKC De Bavinck is a five-minute walk. For secondary education you'd need to travel a bit further, about 1.6 km. The train station is 6.1 km away, so you'll rely on a bike or bus for longer journeys. The neighbourhood has a park or public garden within a five-minute walk, and plenty of restaurants and a library are close by.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Waterweg Makelaar, Funda, Pararius and Vastgoed Nederland.

Suffering from the waste and drug users in the area. I am a reasonably large-built man so I certainly don't feel unsafe, but many neighbours certainly do, and I miss the trees and nature that used to be there.

About Gedempte Biersloot 24, Vlaardingen
The asking price of €270,000 is 23% below the average asking price in Centrum (€351,382) and also below the median of €317,500. Given that the flat is 68 m², smaller than the neighbourhood average of 100 m², the price per m² works out at about €3,971, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €3,793. So it's priced for its size, but the compact floor area means you're paying a premium per square metre.
Centrum is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It's a mix of ages, with many single-person households. The one resident review mentions issues with waste and drug users, but also says the reviewer doesn't feel unsafe. It's a busy, central location with all amenities close by, but it lacks green space compared to some other areas.
The nearest supermarket is Dirk, just 56 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Albert Heijn is 346 metres away (a couple of streets), and Lidl is 519 metres (a five-minute walk). So daily groceries are very convenient.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: IKC 't Palet is 56 metres away, IKC De Bavinck at 415 metres, and IKC Van Kampen at 519 metres. For secondary education, the nearest school is about 1.6 km away, so a bike or bus is needed.
The flat has energy label C, which is average for a home built in 1939. It's not the most efficient, but it's not the worst either. You can expect reasonable energy costs, though older buildings may need attention to insulation.
The nearest train station is 6.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd need a bike or bus to reach it.
The neighbourhood recorded 467 total crimes in the latest data. Given the high population density and central location, this is not unusual for an urban centre. The resident review mentions drug users and waste as issues, but also notes that the reviewer doesn't feel unsafe personally.
