I experience the Noordpolderbuurt as a quiet, pleasant neighbourhood where you can really feel at home. Almost everyone has known each other for years, creating a warm and close community. The neighbourhood feels safe, both during the day and in the evening, and there is a relaxed atmosphere. The homes are generally of good quality and well-maintained. The streets are clean and hygienic, which further enhances living comfort. There is also plenty of greenery in the area; the nature and parks make it a nice place to walk or unwind. In addition, there are sufficient amenities in the neighbourhood, making daily life easy and pleasant. Whether it's shops, schools, or other important facilities: everything is easily accessible. The accessibility of the neighbourhood is excellent, whether by public transport, car, or bike. In short: the Noordpolderbuurt is for me a quiet, safe, and social neighbourhood where people enjoy living and where the atmosphere feels positive and familiar.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a decent neighbourhood with plenty of parks and other amenities. However, there are quite a few problems in the area, such as nuisance and dangerous people who harass you. Additionally, it's often dirty because rubbish isn't collected often enough. Despite all this, I'm quite satisfied with living in this neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is very cosy and you feel at home here. Good communication with neighbours. Lots of shops in the area. Easy to travel by public transport. Close to the city centre, which is of course very nice. There is also a forest nearby where you can explore nature. Fun activities for children, like going to the petting zoo. There are also community centres where you can meet people and do fun activities. In short, this is where you want to live.

Auto-translated to English by AIIf something ever goes wrong, it's not immediately 'yes police', but we usually talk it out among ourselves. We trust each other that someone won't immediately be reported if, for example, they make noise. Usually we just address the neighbour directly instead of making a big deal out of it.
Auto-translated to English by AII’ve lived in Laak as an international student for over a year now and I had great experiences with the people and amenities available. Everyone speaks English and I have experienced no harassment about not being Dutch.

About Vliegwielstraat 29, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €270,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €290,397 and the median of €279,999. Given the 75 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to €3,600, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €3,998 per m². So it's priced keenly compared to other homes in the Noordpolderbuurt.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
Residents have mixed views. One says the neighbourhood feels safe both day and evening, while another mentions nuisance and harassment. The total number of crimes recorded in the area is 504, which is relatively high for a neighbourhood of this size. It's worth considering your own comfort level.
