I've been living here for almost 2 years now and all in all I'm satisfied. Of course, I sometimes see young guys on the street shouting hot-headedly and pushing/shoving each other, but that's part of it. Furthermore, I feel safe here and hardly anything happens. I don't feel attached to my neighbours or the other people on my street, but I do recognise a few and always say a friendly hello, and get it back. There are no arguments and we let each other live and leave each other alone, fine! The centre has enough amenities and I don't really miss anything, except for the fact that there is no Chinese restaurant that delivers food, but that might be very specific of me. For a place so central, I'm satisfied with how much green there is. Recently, a new small green area was added and I find this very pleasant both for the eye and for walking my dog. In terms of hygiene, I find it quite substandard. People leave dog poop lying around, there is often vomit on the street from people who have been out and about, and a lot of litter and food scraps. This surprises me in a negative way and I find it a great pity. This is the only downside; otherwise, I am very happy and satisfied with both my place and the environment!

About Synagogestraat 15, Meppel
Yes, it's in line with the market. Apartments in Historisch Centrum sell for an average of €340,000 (based on recent sales), and the price per m² here is around €4,085, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €4,232. So it's priced without being a bargain.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home built in 1995. You can expect moderate energy costs, not as low as an A-label, but far from the high bills of a G-label. In the neighbourhood, about 22% of homes have label C, while over half have A or better.
The resident review mentions feeling safe despite occasional rowdy behaviour from young people. The total number of crimes reported in the area is 255, which is moderate for a city centre. Most residents seem to get along well, with friendly greetings but not close ties.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, about a 15-minute walk. That's convenient for trips to larger cities.
Yes, several primary schools are within walking distance: K.B.S. De Plataan at 189 m and PC Basisschool Stadskwartier at 355 m. For secondary education, Greijdanus - Meppel is 397 m away. So school runs are easy on foot.
Parking details are not provided in the listing. In a historic city centre, street parking can be limited and may involve permits. You would need to check with the municipality for specific arrangements.
Despite being central, there is greenery. The nearest park or public garden is 0.7 km away, and a resident mentions a new small green area that's pleasant for walking the dog. So you're not short of green space.
