A classic Groningen apartment
This apartment on the Korreweg sits in the Professorenbuurt, a lively part of Oud-Noord. The listing does not state an energy label, so the rest of this page focuses on the street and the neighbourhood rather than the home's efficiency. At €2,195 per month, the rent sits well above the neighbourhood average of €1,236, which puts it on the high side for the area. For context, apartments in Groningen vary widely in price, so this one is clearly at the upper end.

One resident says: "I feel very safe here, in all that time there was only a fire once, but otherwise you can live your life quietly, mostly highly educated neighbours, which is pleasant in contact." Another notes: "The neighbourhood that has everything... lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops." A third adds that it is "busy... full of families and students", with a primary school, a university of applied sciences and a nice park nearby. Based on three reviews, the overall score is 7.62 out of 10. The area is densely populated, with many single-person households and a large share of residents aged 15 to 45.
