Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a small but cosy and close-knit community. The area is also clean and there's little trouble with pests. If I could change something, it would be that more facilities are added or that more is done to make sports clubs more well-known and appealing to young people.

About Burgerhoutstraat 2, Den Burg
The asking price of €675,000 is 16% above the average asking price in Den Burg (€583,555) and well above the median of €522,000. However, this is a detached house, which typically commands a premium. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €5,080, and this home works out at about €5,315 per m², so it's on the high side but not outlandish for a detached property.
Den Burg scores 8.14 out of 10 from three resident reviews. Residents describe it as a social, close-knit community where people help each other. One says: 'We have a very social neighbourhood! Everyone is there for each other!' Another notes it's 'small but cosy' and clean. The population is mixed, with many over-65s, and most homes are owner-occupied single-family houses.
Albert Heijn is just 48 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Aldi is 151 metres, Ekoplaza 228 metres, and Jumbo 261 metres. So for daily groceries, you have several options within a few minutes' walk.
Several primary schools are within walking distance: Jozefschool Texel and Protestant Christelijke Basisschool De Fontein are both about 717 metres away (a ten-minute walk). For secondary education, OSG de Hogeberg is 680 metres away. There's also a special school, Kompas, at 566 metres.
The nearest train station is 14 km away. Den Burg is on the island of Texel, so you'd need to take a ferry to the mainland for train connections.
