Leyenburg, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Veenendaalkade sits in a leafy part of Leyenburg, a neighbourhood that feels more like a village than a city district. At €365,000, the asking price is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €344,315, but the 69 m² floor area and energy label C are in line with what you'd expect for a home of this age. For context, apartments in Den Haag typically sell for around €4,081 per m², so this one is priced keenly.
Residents describe Leyenburg as "a nice multicultural neighbourhood, a bit of village in a city." One resident says: "We know our immediate neighbours and help each other when we can. We have a neighbourhood app together where we can share our problems with each other." Another notes: "An old neighbourhood, from the 1940s. It is conveniently close to Zuiderpark though." The area has a mix of older homes and some newer blocks, and parking is a known issue. With 53% owner-occupied homes and a high density of 5,977 addresses per km², it's a lively, urban pocket.

An old neighbourhood, from the 1940s. Unfortunately, a flat was built on Soesterbergstraat many years ago that doesn't fit in with the area at all. The conversion into bedsits hasn't improved the neighbourhood. Parking is a big problem. It is conveniently close to Zuiderpark though.

Auto-translated to English by AIOf course there are always a few people who don't take putting out the rubbish properly seriously. But overall, our neighbourhood is a nice, cosy area. We know our immediate neighbours and help each other when we can. We have a neighbourhood app together where we can share our problems with each other. And warn each other about thieves or vagrants. I am happy with my neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in the FNP and there we spend a lot on keeping it cosy and clean. But outside our little neighbourhood it's an antisocial mess. Household items are just put out on the street. Always banger fireworks. Gatherings, with or without laughing gas, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AII think my neighbourhood is the quietest and cleanest in all of The Hague. Everywhere else you find rubbish on the streets, people who can't behave, traffic is a big joke, but in Leyenburg it's completely different. It's clean, quiet, peaceful here, people behave well, there are few traffic jams, and especially no stupid people standing on the bike paths with hazard lights.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy neighbourhood, unfortunately a lot of unpleasant things happen here though.
