About Sumatrastraat 83, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 22% below the average asking price in the Archipelbuurt (€862,555), but the apartment is also smaller than average (56 m² vs 142 m²).

The Archipelbuurt has a mix of households: about 745 with children and 865 without. Many residents are older (45+), but there are also younger people. The area is very urban with a high density, so it's lively rather than quiet. Schools are a bit further away, so families might need to travel.
