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 apartment is 65 m² and rents for €1,580 per month, which is in line with the average for apartments in Zaanstad.
Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood gets mixed feedback. 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 neighbourhood Russische buurt is densely populated, with many single-person households and a young adult skew.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Vomar is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Openbare Basisschool De Dijk and OBS Herman Gorter. The municipality Zaanstad provides local services and amenities.
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.
