Binnenstad, Tiel
NeighbourhoodThis 1860 corner house on Waalstraat in Tiel has a presence that matches its age. With 230 m² of floor space, it is substantially larger than most homes in the Binnenstad. The energy label is F, so heating costs will be a real factor. At €585,000, the asking price is 36% above the neighbourhood average of €428,943, a premium that reflects the size and character, but it is on the high side compared to other end-of-terrace houses in Tiel.
The Binnenstad is a dense urban neighbourhood with 2,150 residents and a very high address density of 2,285 per km². Most households are single-person (1,040 out of 1,480), and only 155 households have children. Based on two reviews, the area gets a 6.94 out of 10. One resident says: "It's never boring, to be honest, there are a lot of things that need improvement. Almost daily we deal with speeding drivers, drunk people, and people under the influence. We have nuisance from nightlife crowds and rubbish dumped on the street. This area is by no means safe to live in with two small children." Another resident: "Fine neighbourhood with all amenities within 5 minutes, always cosy with pubs and terraces within walking distance. The only downside is the nuisance from vagrants and junkies around the coffee shops." The neighbourhood Binnenstad clearly has a vibrant centre but also real issues with public order.
For groceries, you have Jumbo and Lidl both just around the corner, and Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. Primary school CBS Prins Willem-Alexander is a five-minute walk, and secondary school Lingecollege vwo en havo is about a ten-minute walk. The train station is 1.5 km away, so a 15,20 minute walk. The municipality Tiel puts all daily amenities within easy reach, but the street itself is in the thick of the action.

To be honest, there are a lot of things that need improvement in our neighbourhood. Almost daily we deal with speeding drivers, drunk people, and people under the influence of other drugs. We live on a street with a coffee shop, but there's also a lot of dealing going on. We've been threatened several times, among others by people staying here on a visa. We have nuisance from nightlife crowds shouting in the middle of the night, and rubbish is regularly dumped on the street. In short, this area is by no means safe to live in with two small children. We also often have to report the aforementioned issues, but virtually nothing is done about them by the municipality.

About Waalstraat 5, Tiel
The asking price is 36% above the average asking price in the Binnenstad (€428,943). However, this home is also 41% larger than the neighbourhood average (230 m² vs 163 m²). The price per m² works out to about €2,543, which is below the neighbourhood average of €4,146 per m². So while the total price is high, you get significantly more space for your money.
The energy label is F, which is poor. In the Binnenstad, only 16.7% of homes have a label D or lower, so this house is among the least efficient. Expect high heating costs. The neighbourhood has 43.3% of homes with label A+ and 13.3% with A, so most other properties are much better insulated.
The Binnenstad has few families, only 155 households with children out of 1,480. Reviews mention nuisance from nightlife, drunk people, and drug-related activity, which residents say makes it unsafe for young children. There are schools within walking distance, but the general atmosphere is more suited to singles or couples without kids.
Residents report daily issues with speeding cars, drunk people, and drug dealing, especially around coffee shops. Rubbish dumping and noise from nightlife are also common. The municipality is described as unresponsive to complaints. The energy label F will also mean high bills.
The train station is 1.5 km away, which is about a 15,20 minute walk or a short cycle ride.
It is a corner house (hoekwoning) built in 1860. That makes it one of the older homes in the Binnenstad, where 38.9% of properties date from before 1945. The age gives it character but also means maintenance and energy efficiency are things to consider.
