Overvecht is dirty, messy, noisy; sometimes it looks like a motorsport field with how they race at night. Rats run across you, it stinks outside, and there are many loitering youths, so safety is not great. Top and hygiene are terrible.
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood has a bit of a reputation as the unsafe neighbourhood of Utrecht, together with Kanaleneiland. But that's not too bad. There are many families with children and elderly people, which makes it a lot quieter. The shopping centre has all the necessary shops together and is within walking distance. Additionally, this neighbourhood is well-connected: you can be in the city centre in 10 minutes by bus, and you can quickly get onto the motorway by car. This neighbourhood also has a lot of greenery, small parks, benches, a football field, playgrounds, etc. So this neighbourhood has many positive aspects. But, of course, there are also some negative aspects, such as cars driving too fast, which sometimes creates very dangerous situations, and the number of loitering youths who are often outside until late in the evening.

About Theemsdreef 75, Utrecht
The asking price of €299,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €341,444 and the median of €327,500. However, the apartment is smaller than average (53 m² vs 88 m²), so the price per m² (€5,642) is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,943. Compared to recent sales, which averaged €349,702, this listing is on the lower end, suggesting it is keenly priced for its size.
The energy label is C, which is average for homes in this neighbourhood. About 28% of homes here have label C, while 50% have A or better. A C label means the home is reasonably efficient, but heating costs will be higher than for an A-rated home. The exact costs depend on usage and energy prices.
