Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 155 m² apartment on the Junostraat sits in the Binckhorst, an area of Den Haag that feels more like an industrial estate than a residential neighbourhood. The home itself is energy-efficient with label A and was built in 1983. At €3,500 per month, the rent is well above the neighbourhood average of €1,739, partly because of its generous size. For context, the average rental apartment in Den Haag goes for less, so this is on the high side.
Based on two reviews, residents describe the Binckhorst as 'an industrial estate with some houses that wasn't thought through.' One resident says: 'It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature.' Another adds: 'No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter.' The area is densely built-up (3,743 addresses per km²) and has a young population, with many 25-45 year olds. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality Den Haag.
For daily shopping, you have a Jumbo and an Aldi just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, such as the Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer (a five-minute walk) and KC de Telescoop (a ten-minute walk). A train station is a ten-minute walk away, and restaurants are on your doorstep.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including HFH Makelaardij.

It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature. They are trying to make the neighbourhood nicer, though. It's easily accessible by bike and car, but that's also because there's a very busy road running through it. This makes some places dangerous for cyclists. There's a lot of litter, and it can be unsafe in the evening. Some lights don't work, and sometimes strange people are around. There isn't really a community since there are a lot of businesses in the area. There are also two reception centres that can sometimes cause nuisance in the evening and during the day (boys on fat bikes shouting things). This also makes safety less good, especially in the evening when there aren't many people around.
