Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis modern apartment on Pegasusstraat sits in Binckhorst, a neighbourhood that is clearly in transition. The building dates from 2023 and carries an A++ energy label, so it is as efficient as they come. At €993 per month, the rent is well below the neighbourhood average of €1,548, which makes it a keen deal for the area. For context, apartments in Den Haag typically go for more.
Binckhorst is an industrial estate with a handful of homes, and residents are honest about its rough edges. 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. And there is a lot of litter." Based on two reviews, the picture is mixed: it is easily accessible by bike and car, but a busy road runs through it, and safety is a concern after dark. The area is home to many young adults, with 58% aged 25 to 45, and most households are single people. The neighbourhood is not for everyone, but it is close to the city.
For daily shopping, the nearest supermarkets are a Jumbo and an Aldi, both about 900 metres away, so a ten-minute walk. A slightly larger Albert Heijn is just over a kilometre off. For schools, De Parachute primary school is just around the corner, and there are several other primaries and secondaries within a short stroll or cycle. The area is well connected by bike and car, and the train station is 1.7 km away. The municipality of Den Haag is investing in making Binckhorst more liveable, so the coming years may bring changes.

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.
