About Melkwegstraat 31E, 'S-Gravenhage
The rent of €933 is significantly below the average for the Binckhorst, which is €1,657. The average price per square metre is €19.69, so for a 55 m² apartment, this rent is on the low side. However, the floor area is also smaller than the neighbourhood average of 457 m², so the price reflects the size.
The energy label is A, which is the most efficient label. This means the home is very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively low energy costs. The label is an official registration, so it is a reliable indicator of the home's energy performance.
The nearest supermarket is an Albert Heijn, about 978 metres away, which is roughly a ten-minute walk. There are also Hoogvliet, Jumbo, and Aldi within about 1.2 kilometres, so you have several options for groceries.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
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.
