Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Maanplein sits in a neighbourhood that is still finding its feet. Built in 2000 and with energy label A, it is efficient and contemporary. At €1,261 per month, the rent is 27% below the neighbourhood average, a keen price for a home of this size. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely, but this one stands out for its value.
Residents describe the Binckhorst as "an industrial estate with some houses that wasn't thought through." One notes: "It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there." Another calls it "an industrial area with a few houses" and mentions "no greenery, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood." Based on two reviews, the area scores 4.19 out of 5, but the feedback highlights litter, safety concerns in the evening, and a lack of community. The neighbourhood Binckhorst is densely built (3,743 addresses per km²) and home to mostly young adults, 1,200 of the 2,075 residents are between 25 and 45.
For daily shopping, the nearest Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with a Hoogvliet a couple of streets away and a Jumbo a ten-minute walk. Schools are close: the Protestant Christian primary school Groen van Prinsterer is on your doorstep, and KC de Telescoop is a five-minute walk. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of restaurants and a park within walking distance, though the neighbourhood itself lacks green space.

It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature. They are trying to make the neighbourhood nicer, though. It's easily accessible by bike and car, but that's also because there's a very busy road running through it. This makes some places dangerous for cyclists. There's a lot of litter, and it can be unsafe in the evening. Some lights don't work, and sometimes strange people are around. There isn't really a community since there are a lot of businesses in the area. There are also two reception centres that can sometimes cause nuisance in the evening and during the day (boys on fat bikes shouting things). This also makes safety less good, especially in the evening when there aren't many people around.
