One says: 'I think my neighbourhood is very cosy, beautiful, everything is nearby.' Another adds: 'It's a nice and busy neighbourhood to live in, always something going on and always something to do.' The area is popular with singles and couples; most households are one-person, and there are relatively few families with children. Average incomes are in line with the city norm. This is a neighbourhood Stationsbuurt that feels alive and central.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and AH to go is a couple of streets away for a quick coffee. Two primary schools, IKC De Argonauten and Openbare Basisschool De Kring, are within a five-minute walk, while Stedelijk Gymnasium Haarlem is a ten-minute walk for secondary education. The train station is a five-minute walk, and a park or garden is just around the corner for a breather. The municipality Haarlem keeps the city centre well-served with shops and restaurants.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Rinze de Makelaar and appears on several channels, including Funda. The energy label is D, and the property was built in 1914, so heating costs are something to factor in.

I've been living here for a short while due to homelessness, but it's a nice and busy neighbourhood to live in, always something going on and always something to do. It's still a city so greenery and housing always remain a bit rubbish, but well, where in the Netherlands don't you have that?
