Zuidwal, Den Haag
This apartment on Gedempte Gracht sits right in the middle of the city, where the streets are lively and everything is close at hand. It's a modern build from 2006 with a generous 130 m² of floor space, which is noticeably larger than the average rental in the area. At €2,950 per month, the rent sits about 26% above the neighbourhood average of €2,345, so it's on the high side, but you're paying for the size and the central setting. For context, apartments in Den Haag in this part of town tend to be smaller, making this one stand out.
The Zuidwal neighbourhood is a multicultural, bustling part of the city centre. Based on two reviews, residents give it a 7.6 out of 10, with one describing it as a "Multicultural neighbourhood with many amenities" and noting "Increasing greenery, everything in the neighbourhood." Another resident calls it "Binnenstadt," saying it's "Very centrally located in the shopping district and easily accessible by public transport or bike. A park and two forests within walking distance. Usually very busy on the streets at weekends and sometimes an unsafe atmosphere on the streets at night." It's a dense, urban area with a high proportion of single-person households.
For daily errands, you're well covered. An Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with an Ekoplaza and a Jumbo a couple of streets away, so the weekly shop is a short stroll. The nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about a ten-minute walk, and there are secondary schools within a similar range. The municipality of Den Haag keeps the city centre well connected, and the train station is roughly a fifteen-minute walk, which makes getting around straightforward.
