Boshuizen: a mixed bag

Boshuizen is a neighbourhood of contrasts. One resident calls it 'Fine' and says 'I enjoy living here.' Another describes it as 'a rather detached part of Leiden, with a strange mix of student complexes and houses' and notes 'a lot of noise nuisance.' A third review is blunt: 'Bad, lots of drugs' and 'Many junkies.' Based on three reviews, the picture is mixed. The area has a high proportion of single-person households and a young population, with many residents aged 15 to 45. It's a very urban setting, with a density of nearly 3,900 addresses per km². For more on the area, see neighbourhood Boshuizen.

Daily life on the street

For your morning bread, the AH XL is just around the corner, and a Lidl and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. The Leonardo College for secondary education is a five-minute walk, and Basisschool De Ley is also within easy reach. A GP and a restaurant are both on your doorstep, and the train station is a ten-minute walk away. The municipality Leiden keeps the city well connected.
