Leyenburg, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 63 m² apartment on Leersumstraat 161 sits in a friendly, multicultural pocket of Den Haag. The home has an A energy label, so heating costs should be modest. At €395,000, the asking price is 15% above the neighbourhood average of €344,315, partly because the flat is 27% smaller than the typical 86 m² in the area, so the price per square metre is on the high side. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in price and size.
Residents describe Leyenburg as a cosy old neighbourhood with a village feel. One says: "A nice multicultural neighbourhood, a bit of village in a city." Another notes: "An old neighbourhood, from the 1940s. Parking is a big problem. It is conveniently close to Zuiderpark though." Based on eight reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 7.44 out of 10. The area is densely populated (nearly 6,000 addresses per km²) and home to many singles and families. Leyenburg has a mix of older homes, some in need of upkeep.
For groceries, a Lidl is just around the corner, an Albert Heijn a five-minute walk away, and a Jumbo a couple of streets further. Schools are a bit farther, the nearest primary, WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla, is about a ten-minute walk. The Zuiderpark is on your doorstep for a stroll or run. The municipality Den Haag offers good public transport, though the train station is 3.7 km away.

An old neighbourhood, from the 1940s. Unfortunately, a flat was built on Soesterbergstraat many years ago that doesn't fit in with the area at all. The conversion into bedsits hasn't improved the neighbourhood. Parking is a big problem. It is conveniently close to Zuiderpark though.

Auto-translated to English by AIOf course there are always a few people who don't take putting out the rubbish properly seriously. But overall, our neighbourhood is a nice, cosy area. We know our immediate neighbours and help each other when we can. We have a neighbourhood app together where we can share our problems with each other. And warn each other about thieves or vagrants. I am happy with my neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in the FNP and there we spend a lot on keeping it cosy and clean. But outside our little neighbourhood it's an antisocial mess. Household items are just put out on the street. Always banger fireworks. Gatherings, with or without laughing gas, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AII think my neighbourhood is the quietest and cleanest in all of The Hague. Everywhere else you find rubbish on the streets, people who can't behave, traffic is a big joke, but in Leyenburg it's completely different. It's clean, quiet, peaceful here, people behave well, there are few traffic jams, and especially no stupid people standing on the bike paths with hazard lights.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy neighbourhood, unfortunately a lot of unpleasant things happen here though.

About Leersumstraat 161, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 15% above the average asking price in Leyenburg (€344,315). However, this flat is also 27% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 86 m². So you are paying a premium per square metre, partly because of the good energy label A and the central location.
Leyenburg is a dense, multicultural area with a village-like atmosphere. Residents appreciate the cosy feel and proximity to Zuiderpark, but parking is a common complaint. The neighbourhood scores 7.44 out of 10 from eight reviews.
A Lidl is 300 metres away, an Albert Heijn 548 metres, and a Jumbo 600 metres. So daily shopping is very convenient on foot.
The nearest primary school is WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla at 3.6 km, followed by the Protestant Christian Pieter van der Plas School at 3.9 km. Secondary schools are about 1.8 km away on average.
The area is very urban (address density 5,977 per km²), so bus and tram connections are plentiful. The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so for trains you would need a bus or bike ride.
