Safe neighbourhood, occasionally some nuisance from young people
Auto-translated to English by AIKerkelanden is very safe during the day, at night there is sometimes some nuisance but hardly anything that bothers you. Public transport connection is relatively good, bus goes every 15 minutes during the day and every 30 minutes in the evening, which could be improved to make public transport better for young people who want to go out in the evening.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe apartment where I live is very noisy. If you don't get along with the neighbours, you can follow their every move. Safety has also deteriorated greatly in the neighbourhood. Fireworks are thrown at people and animals, things are being demolished, set on fire, and rapidly falling into disrepair. It's a green neighbourhood, but a strange nature policy is applied. Every week/day, mowing or leaf removal is done with the necessary noise! Clean and tidy takes precedence over the welfare of the animals, unfortunately! The cosiness is hard to find, unfortunately!
Auto-translated to English by AITerrible neighbourhood, sad how it's going downhill and Moroccans try to call the shots. Neighbourhood police and BOA are nowhere to be seen. Lots of traffic nuisance Assaults, stabbings caught on camera. Intimidation
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood but public transport is terrible.
Auto-translated to English by AIKerkelanden is a cosy neighbourhood with many elderly people. All amenities are nearby in Kerkelanden shopping centre. Plenty of sports facilities with a small swimming pool and various gyms. It is generally quiet in the neighbourhood, with a few exceptions. Downsides for me are that there is little greenery and a lot of traffic.

About Geert Grootelaan 83, Hilversum
Yes, it's right at the neighbourhood median of €375,000. The average price per m² in Kerkelanden is €4,754, and this flat works out to about €5,068 per m², which is slightly above average but still reasonable given its condition and energy label C.
Reviews are mixed. Most residents find it safe during the day, with occasional nuisance from young people at night. One review mentions a deterioration in safety, including fireworks and vandalism. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 218, which is moderate for an area of this size.
The nearest train station is 4.3 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, bus services run every 15 minutes during the day and every 30 minutes in the evening, according to a resident review. That makes it manageable but not ideal for a car-free lifestyle.
Energy label C is average for a 1968 apartment. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills. In the neighbourhood, 54.2% of homes have label A, so this one is less efficient than many, but still acceptable.
Homes in this neighbourhood sell relatively fast, with an average selling time of 20 days. That suggests a fairly active market, so if you're interested, it's worth acting promptly.
Yes, the nearest primary school, Augustinusschool, is just 280 metres away. There are several other primary and secondary schools within a couple of kilometres, including the Alberdingk Thijm Scholen for secondary education.
