Romolenpolder-oost is a modern, green neighbourhood with mostly post-2010 homes. One resident describes it as "a nice neighbourhood" but notes concerns about safety and hygiene: "there have been a few burglaries, and it's not very hygienic either because sometimes a plastic bag blows by and there are a lot of cigarette butts on the ground." They add that "there is a lot of greenery which is very nice and it is well maintained" and that "accessibility is also fine." The area has a young, urban feel with many 25-45 year olds and a high density of addresses. This is the neighbourhood Romolenpolder-oost.
For daily groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Dekamarkt and Lidl a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within a five-minute walk, including IKC Valeo and OBS de Piramide. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and a restaurant is just around the corner. The municipality Haarlem offers all city amenities within easy reach.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Huizenstede Makelaars.

I don't think the neighbourhood is very safe because there have been a few burglaries, and it's not very hygienic either because sometimes a plastic bag blows by and there are a lot of cigarette butts on the ground, but otherwise it is hygienic, there is a lot of greenery which is very nice and it is well maintained. Accessibility is also fine, although recently a road was closed for a year.

However, they praise the greenery and maintenance. The total number of crimes recorded in the area is 220, which is moderate for a densely populated urban neighbourhood.
