I've been living here for about 8 years, nothing special happens here. The funniest thing is near my building there is a junction where people can go right or left, and in the past 4 months alone there have been 3 accidents, so hopefully they'll do something about the street here. As for education, there are only one or two primary schools in the neighbourhood, no secondary school except one that only offers VMBO?? I really don't understand why they do that. And it would be very liveable if they laid tram lines between the colleges/universities and here, because I go to The Hague 4 days a week and I have to walk all the way to tram 9 and then on the way back I also have to walk all the way back.

About Wezelrade 89, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €295,000 is 32% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which is €431,690. However, the apartment has an E energy label, which is less efficient than most homes in the area, over 70% of homes for sale have a better label. The price reflects both the size and the energy performance, so it's on the keen side for the neighbourhood.
The energy label is E. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, most homes for sale have a higher rating, over 53% have label A or better. It's worth factoring in potential improvements to the insulation or heating system.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away. That's a bit of a distance, so you'd likely rely on a bus or bike to get there.
