It is a nice neighbourhood. The people are real working-class folk. They gossip and love sensation.
Auto-translated to English by AII was born here, the neighbourhood has changed a lot in the past 34 years. In the past, people helped each other, now many divorced people. Greetings are no longer possible, and the biggest problem is the parking issues! And always noise from school, renovations, barking dogs, crying children.

About Parkweg 221, Voorburg
The asking price is 111% above the neighbourhood average of €995,071, but this home is exceptional: 375 m² of living space on a 508 m² plot, built in 1933. The average price per m² in the area is €5,771, so the price per m² here is about €5,600, which is slightly below that average. Given the size and character, the price is in line with the market.
The energy label is E. That means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 55.2% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is typical for the area.
The neighbourhood has 770 households with children out of 1,755 total, so about 44% are families. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Professor Casimirschool and Montessorischool Nieuw Vreugd en Rust. Secondary education is also nearby with Dalton College just around the corner.
Parking is a known issue in the neighbourhood, as mentioned by residents. The home is on Parkweg, a street in a densely built area.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle ride. That makes it convenient for commuting to The Hague or other cities.
The plot is 508 m², but the listing does not specify whether there is a garden.
