The neighbourhood is active but not unsafe; there are shops and amenities within walking distance, so you can easily buy a döner and do your shopping at Albert Heijn. There are a few homeless people here who are a bit chaotic, but if you mind your own business, nothing happens.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery often nuisance from people (foreign) who share houses here with too many people. And leave rubbish everywhere on the street. And sometimes I don't feel safe on the street.

About Laakkade 107, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €245,000 is 19% below the neighbourhood average of €302,964, which makes it keenly priced. However, the floor area of 58 m² is 27% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 79 m², so the price per square metre is in line with local norms. Given the compact size and the building's age, it's a competitive entry point into the Laakkwartier-Oost market.
The home has an energy label C, which is average for a property of this era. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate heating costs, though the exact amount depends on usage. In the neighbourhood, only about 23% of homes have a label A or B, so C is fairly typical for a 1923 building.

Another notes it's "active but not unsafe" and that minding your own business is fine. A third review mentions occasional nuisance from overcrowded houses and litter, and sometimes feeling unsafe. Overall, it's a typical urban area where most people feel comfortable, but it pays to be aware.
