City, Enschede
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Mooienhof sits right in the thick of things in Enschede's city centre. Built in 2001, it offers a modern base with an energy label C, not the cheapest to heat, but a solid step up from the older stock in the area. At 99 m², it's a decent size for a city pad. The asking price of €425,000 is 16% below the neighbourhood's average asking price of €508,632, which makes it a keen option compared to other apartments in Enschede.
The City neighbourhood is a dense, urban hub with over 4,200 addresses per km², very strong city living. It's a young area: most residents are between 15 and 45, and two-thirds of households are single-person. Reviews are mixed. One resident says: "I've been living here for over 2 years now. The neighbourhood is very friendly and tidy. Everything is very close by, which is super convenient." Another is less positive: "There are a lot of junkies, people really live for themselves and there is no social cohesion." Based on four reviews, the average score is 6.82. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood City.
Daily errands are a breeze. Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and Jumbo is just around the corner. For school runs, Al Ummah primary school is a couple of streets away, and Openbare Basisschool De Bothoven is a five-minute walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk, handy for trips out of town. The city park is a ten-minute walk away for a bit of green. For more on the wider area, check out the municipality Enschede.

I've been living here for over 2 years now. Above a shop (our own shop). The neighbourhood is very friendly and tidy. Many new buildings are being built for students and first-time buyers! Everything is very close by, which is super convenient. There are many rubbish bins and also racks for deposit bottles. Great neighbourhood!!
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have a shop in the city centre... 83 years in the family. Over the years, the inner city has changed a lot! And not for the better. Demolition of beautiful buildings, many empty shop premises where unfortunately only the so-called "fortune seekers" often settle. The result is that they are empty again after a while! It is often made difficult for shopkeepers because of all the rules from the municipality. Rules thought up by gentlemen somewhere in a warm office who don't even seem to know the whole situation in the city themselves. Streets are closed, the car park in our neighbourhood closed, and that, as they say, for a higher purpose! No, it is certainly not a pleasure to be a small independent business in a city like Enschede where there is only room for large worthless chains like Primark, Sissy Boy XL and Action. No more appreciation for a decent butcher, fish or fruit shop. Very unfortunate but that is the reality in Enschede.
Auto-translated to English by AIEnschede is not really my place to live. There are a lot of junkies, people really live for themselves and there is no social cohesion. The house is easily accessible by public transport, as it is a 7-minute walk from the station. However, if you drive into the city centre by car, you can only do so between 7 and 11 o'clock. If you have your own car, you can't park it anywhere; it can be a 20-minute walk. School is very close, you have the UT, ROC van Twente and Saxion. Living in the city centre is convenient because everything is close by in terms of shops. There is also a lot of crime in the neighbourhood, young people walking around with weapons (apparently) and many junkies arguing over money and drugs. The houses in the centre are old and poorly insulated; you pay an arm and a leg for rent and gas, water, electricity. There is little greenery, although there is the city park.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is cosy. Enschede is a beautiful city and I live right in the centre. The station is nearby and there is also a lovely city park a 10-minute walk from my home. A downside is that in summer the city can smell quite unpleasant, and therefore my home too. If you open the windows, it stinks quite a bit. Furthermore, you also have to deal with the noise of the nightlife from Friday to Sunday.

About Mooienhof 10-106, Enschede
The asking price of €425,000 is 16% below the average asking price in the City neighbourhood (€508,632) and close to the median sold price of €367,037. Given the modern build and central location, it appears priced compared to other listings in the area.
The apartment has energy label C. This means it has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but you can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, about 39% of homes have label C, while 17% have A+ and 33% have B, so it's in the middle of the pack.
The train station is 0.8 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting to other cities without needing a car.
The City neighbourhood has a young population, with many students and singles. Reviews are mixed: some appreciate the convenience and tidiness, while others mention a lack of social cohesion and issues with crime. It's a lively, urban environment.
Parking in the city centre can be challenging. One resident notes that driving into the centre is restricted between 7 and 11 o'clock, and parking may require a 20-minute walk. The listing does not specify a parking spot, so you would need to check local arrangements.
Several primary schools are within walking distance: Al Ummah (425 m), Openbare Basisschool De Bothoven (625 m), and Alfonsusschool (831 m). Secondary schools are about 1.7 km away.
The neighbourhood has a high crime rate, with 1,924 total crimes reported. Reviews mention junkies and young people with weapons. However, some residents find it friendly and tidy. It's worth considering your comfort level with urban living.
