Geeren-zuid, Breda
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Lelystraat sits in the northern part of Breda, a neighbourhood that feels a world away from the city centre. The listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €270,000, the asking price is 62% below the neighbourhood average of €711,000, which is keen given the smaller floor area. For context, the average price per square metre in Geeren-zuid is €5,669, and this home's price per m² works out at about €5,192. Compared to other apartments in Breda, this is a relatively affordable entry point.

Very dangerous my neighbourhood. I work as a volunteer for the last 32 years, but the situation is very very dangerous. Police don't listen. There is no gathering of the neighbourhood in the last two years. I always clean my street. Geeren Zuid Park. I have worked with Werk aan de wijk. I made art workshops. Municipality Breda didn't give 400 euros for material costs, only gave 200, so I asked my family for 1000 US dollars so I could buy materials. I'm sorry, but senior people get no respect here in Breda. (I was racially abused by a security guard in ALDI supermarket as I was giving my trolley to an old lady.) It hurts a lot as I worked for United Nations Goodwill Ambassadors for the last 50 long years, UNICEF, UNESCO, SAVE THE CHILDREN, NCIV Mr Pronk, Voices Of The Earth, for enlightenment in the visions of tomorrow. Pass the torch on to others. Hold on to the memories of yesterday. Even a small memory goes a long, long way and fulfils its purpose in eternity. Quote by M. Bugi.

Auto-translated to English by AII grew up here and have lived in Breda since birth. I do think the neighbourhood could use a new facility. When young people want to do something here in Geeren Zuid, they usually go to the shopping centre, which only results in more loitering youths.
