Erasmusbuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis 80 m² apartment on Leonardo da Vinciplein sits in the Erasmusbuurt, a neighbourhood that feels more like a village within the city. With energy label A, it's a very efficient home, keeping running costs low. At €385,000, it's the cheapest of the five apartments currently for sale in the area and 25% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €515,000, a keen entry point into Haarlem's market. For context, apartments in Haarlem vary widely, but this one stands out for its combination of size and price.
The Erasmusbuurt is a densely populated area (over 3,200 addresses per km²) with a mix of families and singles. Based on four reviews, opinions are divided. One resident says: "Nice neighbourhood with friendly neighbours and lots of green water in the area, safe to live." Another, however, describes it as "Going downhill," citing litter and a lack of connection among newer residents. A third review notes: "Neighbours never say anything to others... it seems as if no one lives there." So while the green spaces and water are appreciated, the social atmosphere gets mixed marks. The neighbourhood Erasmusbuurt has a youngish population, with many households with children.
For your morning bread run, Vomar is just around the corner, you're there in a minute. Jumbo, Dekamarkt and Albert Heijn are all within a ten-minute walk. Two primary schools, De Meer and OBS de Erasmus, are also on your doorstep, making the school run a breeze. The neighbourhood has a park or public garden just a couple of streets away, and a restaurant within a few minutes' walk. The municipality Haarlem offers all the amenities you'd expect from a city, but here you're in a quieter pocket.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Overspaern Makelaardij. The price and details are current as of the listing date.

I've lived here for almost 30 years. It used to be pleasant: clean, good contact with neighbours, etc. But due to the steady influx of Muslims, the neighbourhood is going downhill. Lots of litter lying around, misuse of rubbish bins (throwing all sorts next to them), not being open to contact, their children breaking things... in short: they have no connection with the neighbourhood and its residents. It creates an unpleasant atmosphere..
Auto-translated to English by AINeighbours never say anything to others, it seems as if no one lives there and no one is cheerful, actually it seems as if they don't see the point in life at all or have problems in their family or household which they show, maybe also financial problems. There is a playground further down where no one sits anymore and there is a neighbourhood team and coffee afternoon in the area which is seriously unsafe because of the people who constantly gossip about each other, I hope the coffee afternoon stops immediately!
