Russische buurt, Zaanstad
NeighbourhoodThis listing does not state a year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. The flat is 61 m² and rents for €1,485 per month, which is in line with the average for apartments in Zaanstad.
Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood Russische buurt gets mixed reactions. One resident says: "This neighbourhood is deteriorating; people are increasingly less willing to keep their own street clean. And from the municipality you can expect absolutely nothing." Another notes: "It's not really safe in the neighbourhood in the evenings. When there has been a market, it often takes another day before it's cleaned up." The area is densely built up with many single-person households and a young population.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza and Vomar are a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Openbare Basisschool De Dijk and OBS Herman Gorter, both about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Zaanstad provides local services.
At the time of writing the home is listed via vb&t Nieuwbouwmakelaars and vb&t Makelaars. The agent has not published the year of construction or energy label.

This neighbourhood is deteriorating; people are increasingly less willing to keep their own street clean. And from the municipality you can expect absolutely nothing. A small patch of grass that is used as a poop field for dogs. And on the other side of our house, the Houthaven quay is being built. Away sun, away freedom; the flats are so close that we have to sit with the curtains closed.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's not really safe in the neighbourhood in the evenings. When there has been a market, it often takes another day before it's cleaned up. In my complex, only foreign people live, so I have little contact with the neighbours.
