Centrum-Oost is the eastern half of Delft's inner city, a dense web of canals, monuments and narrow streets. With 4,377 addresses per km², it's very strongly urban. Most homes were built before 1945 (73%), but this apartment is part of the newer stock from the 1990s. The population is mixed: many singles (830 one-person households) and a fair share of over-65s (445), but also families with children (195). No resident reviews are available for this street, so the picture comes from the data alone. The neighbourhood Centrum-Oost is lively and central, with everything within walking distance.
For your morning bread, Ekoplaza is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are on your doorstep: Montessorischool Jan Vermeer and Max Havelaar Kindcentrum, both within a few minutes' walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk away, and restaurants are practically next door. The municipality Delft offers a compact city centre where errands are done on foot.
