People keep to themselves, little to no nuisance, only parking is minimal.
Auto-translated to English by AITransvaal is a working-class neighbourhood, which can be very cosy but also very busy. Often arguments due to Eastern Europeans and a lot of rubbish on the street and around the container. Perhaps the warning could also be in Turkish/Bulgarian. The municipality does work very hard to keep it clean. Many amenities in the form of shops with foreign products, the Haagse Markt, etc. Enough schools. There could be more green spaces. Many elderly people live completely alone in a 5/6-room house, while on the other hand entire families have to make do with 1/2 rooms. These elderly people should really be offered a better deal: a smaller home, but without suddenly having to pay much more rent. Plenty of play areas, both for little ones and older children (football cages, for example). The community centre also offers many opportunities for both children and adults. Various activities to keep the youth off the streets. In short, I enjoy living here very much.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn this neighbourhood there are several playgrounds, and many tram and bus stops. So it is easy to reach and there is the possibility to move around quickly if you want to go somewhere and you don't have a front garden. There are also many small shops and supermarkets in the area. Dentists, GPs, pharmacies, shops, supermarkets etc. are all in the neighbourhood (within walking distance). The same goes for primary schools, there are many different primary schools in the area. I am largely satisfied with the community. Especially those on my street and around it. Unfortunately, there is occasionally some litter around the waste containers in the neighbourhood. Overall, I am satisfied with my neighbourhood.

About Majubastraat 41, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €275,000 is 19% below the neighbourhood average of €338,886, and also below the median of €292,250. Given the 72 m² floor area, that works out to about €3,819 per m², which is slightly under the neighbourhood average of €3,958 per m². So it's priced keenly compared to other homes in Transvaalkwartier-Zuid.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 20% of homes have label A+, 15% label A, and 15% label B, so this home's label is below average for the area.
Residents appreciate the many amenities: supermarkets, shops with foreign products, the Haagse Markt, and plenty of schools and playgrounds. One resident says: 'There are also many small shops and supermarkets in the area. Dentists, GPs, pharmacies, shops, supermarkets etc. are all in the neighbourhood (within walking distance).' However, some note litter around waste containers and occasional noise.
The neighbourhood has many tram and bus stops, making it easy to get around. The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, so for longer journeys you'd need a bus or tram to the station. Residents say it's 'easy to reach' and you can 'move around quickly' without a car.
The listing does not state the number of rooms or bedrooms. The floor area is 72 m², which typically accommodates two to three rooms, but the exact layout is not provided by the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it's unclear if there is any private outdoor space. Many apartments in this area do not have gardens.
One resident notes that 'parking is minimal' in the neighbourhood. The listing does not include a parking spot, so you would likely need to rely on street parking, which may be limited.
The building was constructed in 1923, so it's a pre-war apartment. The energy label E suggests the insulation and heating system may be dated. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so you should expect some maintenance needs typical of a home of this age.
