Selwerd, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor apartment on Kastanjelaan sits opposite a shopping centre, so there is always something to see. At 72 m² it is compact but well laid out, with energy label B keeping running costs manageable. The asking price of €215,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €319,175, partly because the flat is smaller than the typical home in Selwerd.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's getting worse and worse here. I've been living here for 6 years now, but more foreigners are moving in. Two weeks ago, there was a shooting less than 25 metres from the apartment block. Sad.
Auto-translated to English by AISo many foreigners live here and there are so many shootings in this neighbourhood, my child cannot walk around safely, that's why Selwerd looks like a little Turkey.
