Binckhorst is an industrial area that's gradually being transformed, with a mix of businesses and a growing number of homes. Based on two reviews, residents give it an average score of 4.19. 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." The area is easily accessible by bike and car, but a busy road runs through it, which can feel unsafe for cyclists. There's not much of a community yet, and some residents mention litter and occasional safety concerns in the evening. For more on the area, see the municipality of Den Haag.

About Melkwegstraat 53F, 'S-Gravenhage
The rent is 29% below the average for the neighbourhood, which is €1,643. However, the floor area of 59 m² is 88% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 494 m², so the price per square metre is actually higher than average. Whether it's fair depends on what you value: the absolute rent is low, but you're getting a compact space.
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's a reliable indicator of the home's energy performance.
The nearest supermarket is an Albert Heijn, about 971 metres away, which is roughly a ten-minute walk. There are also Hoogvliet, Jumbo, and Aldi within about 1.2 to 1.3 km, so you have several options for groceries within a short distance.

Residents have mixed feelings about safety. One review mentions that it can be unsafe in the evening, with some street lights not working and occasional nuisance from reception centres. Another notes that it's quite dangerous in the evening. The area has a high number of reported crimes (524 in total), but it's also an area in transition, with efforts to improve it.

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.
