Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Maanplein sits in the Binckhorst, a neighbourhood that is still finding its residential feet. At €1,376 per month, the rent is 19% below the neighbourhood average, which makes it a keen option for someone looking for a newer build in Den Haag. The 73 m² floor area is compact compared to the local average, but the energy label A keeps running costs low. For context, this is one of the apartments in Den Haag currently available.
Binckhorst is primarily an industrial area with a handful of houses, and residents are honest about its drawbacks. One resident describes it as "an industrial estate with some houses that wasn't thought through," noting that amenities are scarce and the neighbourhood lacks greenery. Another calls it "an industrial area with a few houses," adding that there is no greenery, no supermarkets, and it feels unsafe in the evening. Both reviews mention litter and a lack of community, partly because of the many businesses and two reception centres. On the plus side, the area is easily accessible by bike and car, and there are efforts to improve it. Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood scores 4.19 out of 5, but the feedback is mixed. For more on the area, see Binckhorst.
For daily groceries, the nearest Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with a Hoogvliet and a Jumbo a ten-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer (a couple of streets away) and KC de Telescoop (a five-minute walk). Secondary education is also close by, with Gymnasium Novum a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is well-connected by bike and car, though a busy road runs through it. For more on the wider area, see the municipality of Den Haag.

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.

However, the apartment is also smaller than average (73 m² vs 470 m²), so the price per square metre is actually higher than the neighbourhood median. Overall, it is a keen price for a modern, energy-efficient apartment.
