NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Olieslagerstraat 13 sits in a quiet part of Alkmaar, with a garden that catches sun from two sides. The 105 m² floor area and 148 m² plot give you room to spread out, and the energy label B keeps running costs reasonable. At €400,000, the price is in line with what other end-of-terrace houses in Alkmaar go for.
The neighbourhood 't Rak-Zuid is a mixed area with mostly owner-occupied homes and a fair number of families. Two residents reviewed it: one describes it as a "nice quiet neighbourhood" with some social contact, but notes that secondary school students cause unrest with drug use in the streets around Jan Arentsz school. The other gives a much harsher picture, mentioning noise, smell nuisance and feeling unsafe inside their home. So experiences vary widely.
For groceries you have Vomar just around the corner, Lidl a couple of streets away, and Dekamarkt and Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk. Primary school DURF is a couple of streets away, and the Stedelijk Dalton College for secondary education is a five-minute walk. The park is on your doorstep, which is handy but also brings some firework noise according to residents.
At the time of writing the home is listed via De Best van Staveren Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so you can view it through several channels.

Not a pleasant neighbourhood to live in. Lots of "special" tenants with mental health care, Brijder Stichting, TBS, alcohol and drug users. I only feel safe when I'm inside my home. The housing association does nothing about the noise and smell nuisance. For 15 years I've regularly had the smell of weed in my home. A mentally disturbed neighbour who makes noise and has threatened me several times, at least one death threat. Cars parked outside the lines, blocking the road to my home. But now the municipality has placed extra concrete bollards, which helps. Neighbours who think the law and rules don't apply to them and then complain about my garden. A noisy, small child upstairs who screams and yells constantly, and is generally unruly, with the mother screaming back. The homes are so poorly soundproofed that I can hear my neighbour sneeze. Unfortunately, I cannot move.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery self-contained. There is some social contact with some residents. The secondary school students cause unrest because they use drugs or smoke weed during breaks. They do this in the streets around Jan arentz secondary school. The park causes a lot of firework use, which means there is a lot of noise especially at night.
