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.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for 3 years and nothing weird has ever happened here, really a quiet neighbourhood. Neighbours are really kind and talk to each other normally.

About Linnaeusstraat 1, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €259,000 is 15% below the neighbourhood average of €302,964. Given the compact 49 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €5,286, which is above the neighbourhood average of €3,939 per m². So while the total price is low, you are paying a premium per square metre.
The home has energy label A, which is very efficient. This means you can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes. In the neighbourhood, only 15% of homes have label A or better, so this is a strong point.
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle ride. This makes commuting by train feasible but not doorstep-convenient.
Residents have mixed views. One says it is "active but not unsafe" and that minding your own business is fine. Another mentions feeling unsafe at times due to nuisance. A third has lived there three years without incident, calling it quiet. Overall, it is a typical urban area with both positive and negative aspects.
Yes, Albert Heijn is just around the corner (201 m). Ekoplaza and Aldi are about a five-minute walk away, and there are more options within a ten-minute walk. Daily shopping is very convenient.
Several primary schools are within walking distance, including Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer (about 1.5 km) and KC de Telescoop (1.5 km). For secondary education, Gymnasium Novum is about 2.2 km away.
