Bloemenbuurt, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis 1930s end-of-terrace house on Bijenhofstraat sits in a part of Leeuwarden where the streets are lined with similar pre-war homes. With 124 m² of living space and a 118 m² plot, it offers a generous layout for a house of this era. The asking price of €339,000 is 24% above the neighbourhood average of €274,314, which puts it on the high side compared to other end-of-terrace houses in Leeuwarden.
Bloemenbuurt is a densely built urban neighbourhood with a mix of housing, though two-thirds are single-family homes. The area has a high turnover of residents, and the three reviews on paint a mixed picture. One resident says: 'You wouldn't want to live there! My experience is very negative, nuisance neighbours, drug concerns, and a car explosion.' Another notes: 'After many years, a lot has changed; many neighbours cause division.' A third mentions gossip and a neighbour dispute. Based on these three reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 5.9 out of 10. For more context, see the Bloemenbuurt neighbourhood.
For daily groceries, Jumbo is just around the corner, with Aldi and another Jumbo a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within a five-minute walk, including IKC Prins Constantijn and IKC Aventurijn. The nearest park or public garden is on your doorstep, and a GP is a ten-minute walk away. The train station is 2.5 km from the home, so you'd cycle or take a bus. For broader context on the area, see the municipality of Leeuwarden.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Makelaardij Friesland Drachten and Makelaardij Friesland.

You can sum it up as follows: > My experience with the Bloemenbuurt is very negative. In two consecutive situations, we had neighbours who caused a lot of nuisance. There were concerns about drug activities, the safety of children, and serious incidents in the neighbourhood, including a car explosion. As a result, I don't feel safe here and I wouldn't choose to live in this neighbourhood myself. The housing is reasonable, but in my opinion, the houses on Azaleastraat are in need of a thorough renovation. Additionally, there are few to no amenities in the immediate vicinity, which does not improve the liveability of the neighbourhood. Based on my personal experiences, I would therefore not recommend the Bloemenbuurt as a place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIAfter living in this neighbourhood for many years, a lot has changed in the meantime; many neighbours cause division among the residents, and they just do whatever they can't help doing. It must be the times, but it used to be nice living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is praised everywhere, but the truth is less beautiful. People often cluster together to badmouth other neighbours. I've also heard that further down the street there's a serious neighbour dispute; apparently a middle-aged woman regularly bullies her surrounding neighbours and also causes damage to other neighbours' property. So living here isn't all that great after all. Klaas.

Whether it is fair depends on your view of the neighbourhood's current reputation and the condition of the property.
