People keep to themselves, little to no nuisance, only parking is minimal.
Auto-translated to English by AITransvaal is a working-class neighbourhood, which can be very cosy but also very busy. Often arguments due to Eastern Europeans and a lot of rubbish on the street and around the container. Perhaps the warning could also be in Turkish/Bulgarian. The municipality does work very hard to keep it clean. Many amenities in the form of shops with foreign products, the Haagse Markt, etc. Enough schools. There could be more green spaces. Many elderly people live completely alone in a 5/6-room house, while on the other hand entire families have to make do with 1/2 rooms. These elderly people should really be offered a better deal: a smaller home, but without suddenly having to pay much more rent. Plenty of play areas, both for little ones and older children (football cages, for example). The community centre also offers many opportunities for both children and adults. Various activities to keep the youth off the streets. In short, I enjoy living here very much.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn this neighbourhood there are several playgrounds, and many tram and bus stops. So it is easy to reach and there is the possibility to move around quickly if you want to go somewhere and you don't have a front garden. There are also many small shops and supermarkets in the area. Dentists, GPs, pharmacies, shops, supermarkets etc. are all in the neighbourhood (within walking distance). The same goes for primary schools, there are many different primary schools in the area. I am largely satisfied with the community. Especially those on my street and around it. Unfortunately, there is occasionally some litter around the waste containers in the neighbourhood. Overall, I am satisfied with my neighbourhood.

About Wesselsstraat 378, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 55% above the neighbourhood average of €338,886, but this apartment is larger (103 m²) and newer (2005) than many homes in the area. The average price per m² in the buurt is €3,958, so this home works out at about €5,097 per m². It's on the high side, but the modern build and A+ label add value.
The energy label is A+, which is very efficient. You can expect low heating and electricity costs. In the neighbourhood, only 20% of homes have A+ or better, so this is a strong point.
Residents appreciate the many shops, supermarkets, and public transport. Lidl is on your doorstep, and there are several primary schools within walking distance. The area is busy but well-served, with playgrounds and community activities. Some mention litter around waste containers as a downside.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, so about a 30-minute walk or a short bus/tram ride. Tram and bus stops are closer, making it easy to get around without a car.
One resident notes that parking is minimal. The neighbourhood is very densely built-up (over 7,300 addresses per km²), so street parking may be limited. The listing does not mention a private parking spot.
The neighbourhood recorded 613 total crimes in the latest data, which is relatively high for a buurt of this size. However, residents report little nuisance on their streets. It's a mixed area with some busy spots.
