Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis brand-new apartment on Kasteellaan sits in the Binckhorst, a neighbourhood that is still very much in development. At 57 m² it is compact, but the energy label A+++ means running costs will be low. The rent of €1,273 is keen, 25% below the neighbourhood average of €1,702, partly because the floor area is smaller than most homes here. For context, this is one of the apartments in Den Haag currently available.
Binckhorst is primarily an industrial estate with a small number of homes. Based on two reviews, residents describe it as a place with virtually no amenities, a very small Albert Heijn recently opened but stocks little. One resident calls it "an industrial estate with some houses that wasn't thought through," noting the lack of greenery, a busy road that can be dangerous for cyclists, and safety concerns in the evening. Another says: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening." The neighbourhood has a high address density (3,743 per km²) and a young population, most residents are between 25 and 45. For more on the area, see the Binckhorst neighbourhood.
For daily groceries, the nearest supermarkets are Jumbo and Aldi, both just around the corner. A larger Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: De Parachute and PCBS Groen van Prinsterer. Secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are about 1.5 km away. The neighbourhood has few facilities of its own, but the centre of Den Haag is easily reached by bike. For more on the wider area, see the municipality of Den Haag.

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.
