About Smeetsmastins 96, Leeuwarden
The rent is 20% above the neighbourhood average of €1,098, but the floor area is 33% larger than the average of 88 m². So you are paying more for significantly more space. Compared with other rentals in the area, the price per square metre works out to about €11.28, which is below the neighbourhood average of €12.50 per m². That suggests the rent is reasonable for what is on offer.
The apartment has a floor area of 117 m², which is well above the average for rentals in Camminghaburen-Midden. That extra space gives you room for a proper living area and separate bedrooms, though the exact layout is not described in the listing. The size is one of the main reasons the rent is higher than the neighbourhood average.

How residents experience their district
A cosy neighbourhood, where most people know each other, and the sense of community is strong. Everyone on the street maintains their house and garden well. There are plenty of opportunities for children to play.
Auto-translated to English by AII have a trusted experience with this neighbourhood. It's cosy but also wonderfully quiet. No nuisance or loud music. It's very clean here and many families live here. I really enjoy living here, where you're not quite in the city but still central enough to get places. We also have a shopping centre with plenty of choice in shops! There are more children living here, so I can't comment on education. It's a very safe, child-friendly neighbourhood with playgrounds for the kids!

How residents experience their municipality
You can sum it up as follows: > My experience with the Bloemenbuurt is very negative. In two consecutive situations, we had neighbours who caused a lot of nuisance. There were concerns about drug activities, the safety of children, and serious incidents in the neighbourhood, including a car explosion. As a result, I don't feel safe here and I wouldn't choose to live in this neighbourhood myself. The housing is reasonable, but in my opinion, the houses on Azaleastraat are in need of a thorough renovation. Additionally, there are few to no amenities in the immediate vicinity, which does not improve the liveability of the neighbourhood. Based on my personal experiences, I would therefore not recommend the Bloemenbuurt as a place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIAtmospheric neighbourhood with nice neighbours. Houses with a stately character interspersed with smaller workers' cottages. You can feel the history, you can walk straight into the city centre.
Auto-translated to English by AIAfter living in this neighbourhood for many years, a lot has changed in the meantime; many neighbours cause division among the residents, and they just do whatever they can't help doing. It must be the times, but it used to be nice living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone keeps to themselves but it's a calm and peaceful neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have lived in Weidum since 1972. A bullseye, we can say. Our neighbourhood, Sânpaad, is fantastic. Young and old join in when something is organised. Many of our own young people stay living here. An enormous amount is organised, namely: kaatsen, cards, billiards (4 tables), folk dancing, badminton, fair, Christmas ball, 55+ party, etc. etc. It is a great pity that no building is allowed. We hope to be able to stay here for years to come. Weidum "boppe".
Auto-translated to English by AIAntisocial people in the neighbourhood. Very unsafe.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived there for 55 years, so that says enough.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have little contact with the neighbours and other residents. Sometimes you do see things that don't belong in the neighbourhood.
