Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis two-year-old apartment on Melkwegstraat sits in a neighbourhood that is still finding its feet. The rent of €933 is remarkably low for Den Haag, 46% below the local average, partly because the floor area (55 m²) is much smaller than the typical home in the area. For a sense of what else is available, have a look at other apartments in Den Haag. The price is keen for a new-build with an A energy label.
Binckhorst is a mixed-use area where businesses and a handful of homes sit side by side. Based on two reviews, residents describe it 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 neighbourhood has a very high density of addresses (3,743 per km²) and a young population, more than half of residents are between 25 and 45. For more context, see the page on municipality Den Haag.
For daily groceries, the nearest Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away, and a Hoogvliet, Jumbo and Aldi are all within about 1.2 km. There are several primary schools within walking distance: the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school is just a few streets away, and KC de Telescoop is a couple of streets further. A secondary school, Gymnasium Novum, is about 874 m away. The area is well connected by bike and car, though a busy road runs through it.

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.

About Melkwegstraat 39G, 'S-Gravenhage
Yes, it is keen. The rent is 46% below the neighbourhood average of €1,739, and the price per square metre (€17) is also lower than the local average of €20.12. The apartment is new-build with an A energy label, so energy costs will be low. However, the floor area is 55 m², which is 90% smaller than the average home in Binckhorst (527 m²).
The energy label is A, which is the most efficient rating. This means the home is well insulated and has low heating and electricity costs. You won't have to worry about high energy bills.
Residents report that the area can feel unsafe in the evening, with some street lights not working and occasional nuisance from reception centres. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 524, which is relatively high. It's worth being aware of this if you plan to walk alone at night.
Yes. The nearest supermarket is an Albert Heijn about a ten-minute walk away (990 m). Other supermarkets like Hoogvliet, Jumbo and Aldi are within 1.2 km. For primary schools, the closest is Groen van Prinsterer at 367 m, and there are several others within a kilometre. A secondary school, Gymnasium Novum, is 874 m away.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. The area is also easily accessible by bike and car, though a busy road runs through the neighbourhood.
The nearest park or public garden is 1 km away, so it's a ten-minute walk. Residents note that there is virtually no greenery within the Binckhorst itself, so you would need to go to neighbouring areas for nature.
