About Jansstraat 46A-6, Haarlem
Is €2,000 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent is 11% below the neighbourhood average of €2,258, which puts it on the keen side for Bakenes. The floor area of 62 m² is 25% smaller than the average of 83 m², so you are paying less per square metre than the local norm. With rents in the area ranging from €1,650 to €2,850, this sits comfortably in the lower half of the range.
What is the energy label for this home?
The agent has not published this information, so it is not possible to say how efficient the home is. The building dates from 1700, but the label would depend on the specific installations and measures in place, which are not detailed here.
How far is the train station from this apartment?

What is the neighbourhood like for single people?
Bakenes is very much a single-person neighbourhood, with 61% of households being one-person. That is a high share compared to many areas, and it shapes the local feel. The largest age group is 25-45, which adds a youthful energy. Families with children are a small part of the mix at 15%, so the area is quieter in that respect.
