Very many so-called confused people in the neighbourhood under the influence of something. I think they should look at how to keep these kinds of people out of the neighbourhood as much as possible.

About Hoogstraat 1A, Bergen Op Zoom
The asking price of €229,000 is well below the neighbourhood average of €381,381 for homes currently for sale. However, this apartment is also much smaller than average (49 m² vs 123 m²). Compared to other apartments in Bergen op Zoom, the price per m² works out at about €4,673, which is above the neighbourhood average of €3,586 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the compact size and central location.
The apartment has energy label E. This means it's not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. In the Centrum neighbourhood, about 25.5% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for an older property. It's worth factoring in potential energy costs when budgeting.
Bergen op Zoom train station is 1.6 km from the apartment, which is about a twenty-minute walk or a short cycle ride. The station offers connections to cities like Rotterdam and Antwerp.
Based on three neighbourhood reviews, the Centrum has a mixed but generally friendly atmosphere. One resident says: "Friendly people live in the neighbourhood." Another mentions plenty of activities in the city. A third review notes some issues with people under the influence, but overall the area scores 7.4 out of 10. The neighbourhood has many singles and smaller households, so it's a lively, urban environment.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. Given that this is a first-floor apartment in the city centre, it's unlikely to have private outdoor space. The nearest park or public garden is 0.4 km away, a five-minute walk.
With a floor area of 49 m², it's likely a one-bedroom or studio apartment, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent for the exact layout.
