I've been living in Houtwijk for a while now and overall I'm very satisfied with the neighbourhood. What I particularly experience as positive are the people here. The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere on the street. The area is also clean and well-maintained, which gives a nice and cared-for feeling. Moreover, it feels very safe here; I feel at ease in the surroundings at any time of day. What I find less pleasant is the accessibility of Houtwijk by public transport. There are buses and trams, but the service is limited and connections to other parts of the city are sometimes a bit cumbersome or time-consuming. This makes it difficult for people without a car to get to other places quickly. All in all, I think Houtwijk is a nice and quiet place to live, especially because of the friendly neighbours, the cleanliness and the feeling of safety. Hopefully public transport will be better organised in the future.
Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone is always open for a chat, the neighbours look out for each other. All amenities are close by. Actually, this is the perfect neighbourhood. Everyone neatly cleans up the mess on the street, the houses are beautiful and well-insulated, green spaces are next to the centre which is also nice and spacious. Moreover, there is plenty to do for the children. Accessibility by both public transport and car is fine.

About Dr. L.J. Rogierstraat 39, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €525,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €464,000 and the median of €495,000. However, corner houses often command a premium, and the home has a generous 125 m² floor area and a 110 m² plot. The average price per m² in Houtwijk is €4,428, so this home works out to €4,200 per m², slightly below the neighbourhood average. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the corner position and the garden.
The home has energy label C. This means it's reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, though not as low as with an A or B label. In Houtwijk, 36.1% of homes have label A, 19.4% label B, and 33.3% label C, so this home is in line with the local norm.
Public transport is a mixed bag. One resident notes that buses and trams are available but the service is limited and connections to other parts of the city can be cumbersome. Another says accessibility by both public transport and car is fine. The nearest train station is 5.4 km away, so for frequent train travel, a car or bike is handy.
