The asking price is 19% below the average asking price in the Kruistochtbuurt, which is €557,900. Given the 90 m² size and energy label B, it's priced keenly compared to other apartments in the area. However, the neighbourhood has a mix of property types, so it's worth checking how this specific flat compares to similar ones.
The Kruistochtbuurt is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It's popular with young adults and families, and most homes date from before 1945. Residents appreciate the quiet streets and the proximity to shops and schools. The area has a residential feel but is not overly noisy.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. That makes it feasible for commuting, though not directly on your doorstep.
There are several schools within walking distance. The Sint Bernardusschool (primary) is about 200 m away, and the Scholengemeenschap Eerste Christelijk Lyceum (secondary) is around 270 m. Other options include the Franciscus Xaveriusschool and the Haarlem College, all within a ten-minute walk.
The closest supermarket is a SPAR express about 500 m away, and there are several Dekamarkt branches within 700 m. A Vomar is about 900 m away. So daily shopping is convenient on foot or by bike.
The apartment has energy label B, which is good for a pre-war building. It means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, with lower heating costs compared to older, uninsulated properties. You can expect decent insulation and efficient heating.

How residents experience their municipality
very nice and beautiful neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for almost 30 years. It used to be pleasant: clean, good contact with neighbours, etc. But due to the steady influx of Muslims, the neighbourhood is going downhill. Lots of litter lying around, misuse of rubbish bins (throwing all sorts next to them), not being open to contact, their children breaking things... in short: they have no connection with the neighbourhood and its residents. It creates an unpleasant atmosphere..

Auto-translated to English by AIBy lively I mean that there are many hip young people living here and there are many amenities and infrastructure in the neighbourhood, but it is anonymous because people don't really know each other. You live there and know your neighbours, but you don't really know your neighbours' neighbours. Many people move often.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt is outdated, rubbish on the streets, flats don't look very nice
