Auto-translated to English by AIQuite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach, for example. Lovely people around you. It's a 5-minute walk from the Albert Heijn. There are also small shops within walking distance. There's a good driving school, Phillipo.
Auto-translated to English by AIA normal neighbourhood, not busy or anything like that. Lots of shops nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the hygienic condition is concerned, there is much room for improvement. This by making offenders clean up their own mess and imposing much higher fines. This does mean that there should be better monitoring and that the supervisory service should not just drive by. This prevents nuisance from pests and pollution. But it also gives a safer feeling for the entire neighbourhood.

About Professor Kaiserstraat 21A, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €550,000 is 23% above the neighbourhood average of €447,510. However, this apartment is 85 m², while the average in the area is 95 m², so the price per m² is higher. The home is in a sought-after pre-war building with an F energy label. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the location and the character of the property.
The Valkenboskwartier is a very urban neighbourhood with a high density of addresses. It's popular with singles and couples, though there are also families. Residents mention it's close to the centre and the beach, but some note noise from a busy road. The area has a mix of shops and is generally tidy. Based on five reviews, it scores a 7.75 out of 10.
The nearest Albert Heijn is about 160 metres away, so just around the corner. Jumbo is about 320 metres, and Ekoplaza is about 360 metres. There are also small shops within walking distance, as noted by residents.
Several primary schools are within a ten-minute walk, including De Parachute (about 4.6 km away, but there are closer ones like Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer at 5.1 km). For secondary education, Sint-Maartenscollege is about 5.4 km away. The neighbourhood also has a child daycare centre within 300 metres.
The energy label is F, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. The neighbourhood has a mix of labels, with about 38% of homes rated D or lower, so an F label is not unusual for a pre-war building.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus, or car to reach it.
