Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis 158 m² apartment on Vredenburgplein sits right in the thick of things. The energy label A means it's efficient, and the 2017 build gives it a modern feel. At €2,850 per month, the rent is 35% above the neighbourhood average of €2,107, but the floor area is 82% larger than the typical 87 m² in the area, so you get a lot more space. For context, this is one of the larger apartments in Utrecht.
This is a busy, central area, the address density is very high at 5,225 per km². The one resident review sums it up: "In terms of amenities it's wonderful to live in the centre, but it's also very busy and not accessible by car. Public transport is excellent." They also note that "I never feel comfortable walking alone late at night because of all the homeless people and creepy individuals" and wish for more green space, though there is "a very nice green courtyard at the apartment complex." The neighbourhood has a young population, with most residents between 25 and 45, and many single-person households. For more context, see the Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs neighbourhood.

In terms of amenities it's wonderful to live in the centre, but it's also very busy and not accessible by car. Public transport is excellent. I never feel comfortable walking alone late at night because of all the homeless people and creepy individuals. There should be much more green space in the centre for my liking. It could be so much better. We do have a very nice green courtyard at the apartment complex.
