De Noork gets a 6.53 out of 10 from three residents, and the feedback is honest. One resident calls it a "decent neighbourhood" but notes that "the closer to the railway, the worse it gets" and mentions speeding on Mozartlaan and other streets. Another says it's "safe but boring", people keep to themselves, though dog owners create a cosy atmosphere. A third appreciates that it's "calming" and "close to the city". The neighbourhood has a mix of families and singles, with many smaller households. Neighbourhood De Noork is densely built (2,710 addresses per km²) and feels very urban.

normal neighbourhood but very dependent on exactly where you are. the closer to the railway, the worse it gets. waste nuisance around the Aldi is excessive and really needs attention. speeding on the Mozartlaan, Paganinistraat, Oude Postweg, Jozef Haydnlaan is also significant. speeding is too easy and it's unclear what the maximum speed is. small gardens and green strips also need attention. where the streets are swept regularly (plus point), the gardens are maintained once a year. I feel safe enough, although it's not always great, loud foreign voices, groups of men and overdue maintenance on sometimes entire blocks.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople keep to themselves, but aren't distant. They can still have a chat here and there. There are many dog owners in the neighbourhood whose dogs play together a lot, which sometimes creates a cosy atmosphere. A downside is that there's a lot of fireworks set off in the evenings/nights. Also, a lot of rubbish is dumped by the plastic/paper containers, or entire households' furniture is thrown away.

About Mendelssohnstraat 44, Hengelo
The asking price of €225,000 is 26% below the average asking price in De Noork (€304,833) and also below the median of €350,000. Given the 77 m² floor area and energy label D, it is priced keenly compared to other flats in the neighbourhood. However, the flat was built in 1963 and has an older energy label, so heating costs may be higher than in a modern home.
De Noork scores 6.53 out of 10 from three reviews. Residents describe it as 'decent' but note issues like speeding on main roads and waste near the Aldi. Others find it 'safe but boring' with a quiet atmosphere, while one appreciates its calm and accessible feel. The area is densely populated with many singles and smaller households.
The train station is 600 metres away, about a seven-minute walk. This makes commuting to Hengelo city centre or further afield convenient.
The Aldi is just 44 metres from the front door, literally on your doorstep. A Jumbo is 586 metres away (a five-minute walk), and an Albert Heijn is 905 metres away (about ten minutes on foot).
The flat has energy label D, which is average for a home from 1963. In De Noork, 80% of homes have label D or lower, so this is typical for the area. You can expect moderate energy costs, but not as low as a modern A-rated home.
Residents generally feel safe, though one review mentions 'loud foreign voices' and groups of men as occasional concerns. Another notes that fireworks are set off in the evenings. The total number of crimes in the neighbourhood is 80, which is moderate for an urban area.
