Very good. Lots of friendly people and there's always something to do
Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about two years and there is more than enough access to shops/churches/schools etc, that was never a problem. However, this neighbourhood is poorly connected to public transport, which really should be better. This was a major reason for me to want to move, it was too far from e.g. Zernike, friends, or everything on the north side of the city. The neighbourhood always felt safe otherwise. Most of the nuisance came from schoolchildren during breaks at e.g. the shops and around the schools. They often don't put their rubbish in a bin, which I personally found very annoying. Other than that, the neighbourhood is perfectly fine.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's cosy, the neighbourhood is beautifully green. Shops nearby, public transport nearby and the A28 nearby. Also many schools, primary and secondary. Hoornse Plas is within cycling distance. Open-air swimming pool De Papiermolen is within walking distance. In 10 minutes by bike you're in the city centre, perfect!

About Multatulistraat 141, Groningen
The asking price of €225,000 is 21% below the average asking price in De Wijert (€283,371) and also below the median of €249,000. Given that homes in the neighbourhood sell on average in 20 days, this price is keen. However, the energy label D is less efficient than much of the current stock, so factor in potential heating costs.
De Wijert scores an 8.13 out of 10 from residents. They describe it as green, cosy, and well-equipped with shops and schools. One resident mentions it's poorly connected to public transport for reaching the north side of the city, but otherwise safe and pleasant. The area has a mix of ages, with many young adults and a high proportion of single-person households.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. The neighbourhood has bus connections, but some residents feel public transport could be better for longer journeys across the city.
Albert Heijn and Lidl are both within 250 metres, and Jumbo is about 300 metres away. For schools, secondary school De Bolster is just over 100 metres away, primary school De Tamarisk is 300 metres, and the Montessori Vaklyceum is 364 metres. Everything you need for daily errands is within a few minutes' walk.
The apartment has energy label D. In the neighbourhood, 23.3% of homes have label D or lower, while 40% have label C. Label D means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a more modern property. It's worth considering improvements like insulation or double glazing.
Homes in De Wijert sell on average in 20 days, which is relatively fast. This suggests a healthy demand. The apartment at Multatulistraat 141 is priced below the neighbourhood average, so it may attract interest quickly.
