The Binckhorst is an industrial estate with a few houses, and residents are honest about its rough edges. 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." Another adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." Based on two reviews, the average score is 4.19 out of 5. The area is easily accessible by bike and car, though a busy road runs through it. There is little sense of community, as many businesses dominate. For more on the area, see the Binckhorst.
For daily shopping, the nearest Albert Heijn is about a ten-minute walk away, with Hoogvliet and Jumbo a bit further. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer and KC de Telescoop. Secondary education is also close, with Gymnasium Novum. The train station is 1.7 km away, and a park is about 1 km from the door. For more on the wider area, see the municipality of Den Haag.

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.
