It is a social neighbourhood of students, young people, families and many single people. People greet each other easily. With the many pubs it is lively, little going on. I experience it as a social neighbourhood where people are there for each other and easily strike up a conversation. I feel safe here in the neighbourhood and don't mind taking a walk in the evening. Many shops, GPs, pharmacy, supermarket, hairdressers and dining options. Also very nice that there are children living in the area and the community centre is always nice to stay with many activities.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy and, in my opinion, fairly safe neighbourhood. I've never felt uncomfortable, at least. Not during the day or late at night. I don't experience much nuisance and am otherwise very happy with the place where I live.

Auto-translated to English by AIOosterpoort is a nice neighbourhood, lately there have been some strange people hanging around, but nothing to worry about. It's relatively far from the city and we're a bit in our own village in Groningen. But then you're still in the centre in 5 minutes, mate.

About Joachim Altinghstraat 20A, Groningen
At 80 m² and €249,000, the price per m² is about €3,113, which is well below the neighbourhood average of €4,470 per m². The asking price is 23% lower than the average asking price in Oosterpoort, so it is on the keen side. However, the building dates from 1900, so factor in potential maintenance.
The home has energy label B, which is efficient for a pre-war building. You can expect reasonable energy costs, though not as low as a modern A++++ home. In Oosterpoort, only about 10% of homes have label B or better, so this is a good score for the area.
Oosterpoort is a lively, social neighbourhood with a mix of students, young people and families. Residents appreciate the safety and the many pubs, shops and dining options. It is densely built with a high address density, so it feels urban. The train station is a ten-minute walk away.
