A fascist neighbourhood that claims to be left-wing. Poorly maintained streets. Everywhere there is vomit, glass, and rubbish. Dirty pavements, graffiti everywhere, every street suffers from a huge nuisance of students. Students overpopulate the area. No diversity, too expensive shops. Only rich white people. Social inequality is clearly visible here. 1000 metres away in Overvecht people have nothing, here in abundance. Full of snobs. Social housing is only 6 percent, deliberately sold off, all homes are being split: unliveable, too much noise, and expanded with extra floors. People earn an average of 6-10,000 per month and look like tramps. There is no cohesion, people are focused on themselves, all islands. The atmosphere is gone. It was once a beautiful neighbourhood, but yuppies, damn students and damn expats have turned it into a white enclave of coke-sniffing egotrippers.

About Goedestraat 120BS, Utrecht
The asking price is €649,000, which is slightly above the neighbourhood median of €625,000. However, this apartment is 144 m², while the average in Wittevrouwen is 90 m². The price per m² works out to about €4,507, which is below the neighbourhood average of €6,865 per m². So you are paying more overall but getting significantly more space.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. In Wittevrouwen, about 35% of homes have label C, and another 35% have label A. A C label means moderate energy efficiency, heating costs will be noticeable but not extreme. The home was built in 1880, so insulation may be less modern than newer builds.
Wittevrouwen has a mix of residents: about 37% are one-person households, and only 11% of households have children. The area is very urban and student-heavy, which some residents find noisy. There are several primary schools within walking distance, but the neighbourhood may not feel as family-oriented as quieter suburbs.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride. The high address density (5,360 per km²) means many amenities are within walking distance.
The neighbourhood recorded 316 total crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for an urban area. One resident review mentions issues with litter, graffiti, and noise from students. However, crime rates vary by street, and the area has a visible police presence.
Parking is not detailed in the listing, but in central Utrecht streets like Goedestraat, parking is often on-street with permit schemes. The high density suggests limited private parking. You would need to check with the municipality for permit availability and costs.
