Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis brand-new apartment on Kasteellaan 797 sits in the Binckhorst, a neighbourhood in Den Haag that is clearly in transition. The energy label is A++, which means the home is very efficient to run. At €1,258 per month, the rent is keen compared with the neighbourhood average, and it is one of the [apartments in Den Haag]( /huurwoningen/s-gravenhage/appartementen/ ) currently on the market.
Residents describe the Binckhorst as an industrial area with a few houses, and they are honest about its drawbacks. 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." Another adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." Based on two reviews, the picture is mixed: the area is accessible by bike and car, but a busy road runs through it, and safety is a concern in the evening. The neighbourhood is part of [the municipality of Den Haag]( /gemeente/s-gravenhage/ ), which is working on improvements.
For daily shopping, the nearest supermarkets are a Jumbo and an Aldi, both about a five-minute walk away. A couple of streets further, an Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk. For schools, De Parachute primary school is a ten-minute walk, and the Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer is a bit further. Secondary options include Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum, both within a fifteen-minute walk. The area is well connected by bike and car, though the busy road is a point to be aware of.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
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.
