NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Perronlaan in Utrecht is a modern rental with an A+++ energy label, meaning it's exceptionally efficient and keeps running costs low.

For context, this is one of the apartments in Utrecht currently available.
The neighbourhood Schepenbuurt, Cartesiusweg e.o. is a densely populated area with a very strong urban feel (over 3,000 addresses per km²).

For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with PLUS a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within a ten-minute walk, including Van Asch van Wijckschool and Basisschool Jules Verne. The municipality Utrecht offers extensive amenities, with a train station a ten-minute walk away and a park or parkland on your doorstep.

My experience in the neighbourhood used to be very good. It was fun and cosy. Now there are some people living there who make it a lot less cosy and cause unjustified nuisance. You are wrongly accused and the police are called immediately. Personally, I don't think it's a safe neighbourhood, cars also drive very fast and there are many children who are careless with scooters or fatbikes.
