Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Maanplein sits in a neighbourhood that is still finding its feet. At 81 m² with an A energy label, it is efficient and well-maintained. The rent of €1,495 is 14% below the neighbourhood average of €1,739, making it a keen price for the size. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely, but this one stands out for its value.
Based on two reviews, residents describe Binckhorst as an industrial estate with some houses that wasn't thought through. One resident says: "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." Another adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." The area is densely populated with 3,743 addresses per km², and most residents are young adults aged 25-45. The neighbourhood Binckhorst is a work in progress, with ongoing efforts to improve.
For daily shopping, the nearest Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away, and a Hoogvliet is just beyond that. Schools are close: the Protestant Christian primary school Groen van Prinsterer is on your doorstep, and KC de Telescoop is a couple of streets away. The municipality Den Haag offers a wide range of amenities, but within Binckhorst itself, you will rely on a bike or car for most errands.

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.
