Binnenstad, Schiedam
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor apartment on the Hoogstraat sits right in the thick of things. At 58 m² it's compact, but the high ceilings and classic 1906 proportions give it a spacious feel. The energy label C means it's reasonably efficient for a home of this age. With a price of €250,000, it's 49% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €489,714, a keen entry point into the Schiedam market, especially compared to other apartments in Schiedam.
The Binnenstad is Schiedam's historic core, a dense urban area with 2,250 residents and a very high address density of 5,444 per km². It's a young area: the largest age group is 25-45, and many households are singles. One resident who has lived here 14 years says: "In recent years the neighbourhood has deteriorated. They gave it a makeover but that doesn't improve anything. More people live here and also different people at the same addresses who simply don't belong here. It's very noisy and the nuisance has increased." That's a single review, so it's one perspective. The neighbourhood Binnenstad has a mix of old and new, with 70% of homes built before 1945.
Daily life here is compact. Albert Heijn is just around the corner for groceries, and Dirk is a couple of streets away. For bread or a quick bite, restaurants are on your doorstep. Basisschool de Singel is a five-minute walk, and IKC Blink is a bit further. The train station is a ten-minute walk, handy for commutes. The municipality Schiedam keeps the centre lively with shops and cafés.
At the time of writing the home is listed via several channels, including vandeVijver Makelaardij, Vastgoed Nederland and Funda.

I've lived here for 14 years, very special because my father was born on this street. But in recent years the neighbourhood has deteriorated. They gave it a makeover but that doesn't improve anything. More people live here and also different people at the same addresses who simply don't belong here. It's very noisy and the nuisance has increased.
