Frequently asked questions
About Texelhof 135, Haarlem
Is €674 a fair rent for this apartment?
Yes, the rent of €674 is in line with the market. The average rent per m² in the Waddenbuurt is €8.02, and this apartment works out at exactly that rate for its 84 m². There is only one rental property available in the neighbourhood right now, so options are limited.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D. This is an average rating, meaning the home is not particularly efficient but also not a major energy guzzler. You can expect moderate heating costs, though exact bills depend on usage and energy prices.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 3.9 km away. That's about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus journey. The distance means the apartment is not right next to the station, but it's still reachable for commuting.
What is the neighbourhood like for families?
The Waddenbuurt has a mix of households: about 34% are single-person, 22% are couples with children, and 13% are couples without children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and a child daycare just around the corner. However, the one resident review mentions the area looks outdated and untidy.

How safe is the Waddenbuurt?
The CBS recorded 69 total crimes in the neighbourhood, which for a population of 1,810 works out at about 38 crimes per 1,000 residents. This is a moderate figure, but without a breakdown by crime type it's hard to judge the nature of the incidents.
What is the urbanity level of the area?
The address density is 3,616 per km², which classifies the area as very strongly urban (level 1 on a scale of 1 to 5). This means you'll find shops, services and public transport within easy reach, but also more traffic and noise than in suburban areas.

Experiences from Haarlem
How residents experience their municipality
very nice and beautiful neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for almost 30 years. It used to be pleasant: clean, good contact with neighbours, etc. But due to the steady influx of Muslims, the neighbourhood is going downhill. Lots of litter lying around, misuse of rubbish bins (throwing all sorts next to them), not being open to contact, their children breaking things... in short: they have no connection with the neighbourhood and its residents. It creates an unpleasant atmosphere..

Auto-translated to English by AISad people have no life, they ruin others' lives
Auto-translated to English by AIBy lively I mean that there are many hip young people living here and there are many amenities and infrastructure in the neighbourhood, but it is anonymous because people don't really know each other. You live there and know your neighbours, but you don't really know your neighbours' neighbours. Many people move often.
