Laakkwartier-Oost is a dense, urban area with a mix of cultures and a lively street scene. Based on three resident reviews, opinions vary: one resident calls it "Active but good," noting shops and amenities within walking distance and a döner easily bought at Albert Heijn. Another says it's "Fine", quiet, with kind neighbours and nothing weird in three years. A third review, however, describes it as "Overcrowded," with nuisance from shared houses and rubbish on the street. The neighbourhood has a high address density (6,691 per km²) and a young population, with many single-person households. For more context, see the Laakkwartier-Oost neighbourhood.
Daily shopping is easy: Jumbo and Aldi are just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. For primary schools, De Parachute is a ten-minute walk, and Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer is a bit further. Secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are within a 20-minute walk. The neighbourhood has a park or public garden just a couple of streets away, and a library within a five-minute walk. For more on the wider area, check the municipality of Den Haag.

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 Lyonnetstraat 77, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €250,000 is 17% below the neighbourhood average of €302,964, which makes it look keen. However, the floor area (58 m²) is 27% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 79 m², so the price per square metre works out at about €4,310, slightly above the neighbourhood average of €3,939 per m². It's a market-rate price for a smaller home in a central location.
The energy label is D, which is average for a home built in 1923. In the neighbourhood, 48.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is typical. You can expect moderate heating costs, but improvements like better insulation could bring the label up and reduce bills.
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes commuting by train quite convenient from this home.
Resident reviews are mixed. One says it's a quiet neighbourhood with kind neighbours, another mentions it's active but not unsafe, and a third reports nuisance from overcrowded shared houses and litter. Overall, the neighbourhood has a young, diverse population with many single-person households.
Safety perceptions vary. One resident says nothing weird has happened in three years, another says it's active but not unsafe if you mind your own business, and a third sometimes doesn't feel safe due to nuisance. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 580, but without a per-capita figure, it's hard to compare.
Jumbo and Aldi are just around the corner (313 m), and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk (403 m). There's also a park or public garden 200 m away, a library 600 m away, and a restaurant 300 m away. For daily needs, everything is within easy walking distance.
The building was built in 1923, so it's about 100 years old. The energy label D suggests it has some insulation but could be improved. The listing doesn't mention any recent renovations, so you should expect some maintenance typical of a home of this age.
Primary schools within walking distance include De Parachute (1.4 km) and Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer (1.6 km). For secondary education, Sint-Maartenscollege (2.1 km) and Gymnasium Novum (2.1 km) are options. There are also several other schools within 5 km.
