The neighbourhood is going downhill because there are people who don't integrate, throw rubbish down. I've lived here for 12 years, always with great pleasure, but the last 3 years it's been going downhill, a shame.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in this neighbourhood for 18 years. I feel safe. I can have a chat with the neighbours. You can play outside safely. There's also plenty of space to play outside. Many different people live here, which makes the neighbourhood cosier and livelier. The city is nearby. And in and around the neighbourhood itself there are many amenities. They are all easily accessible, whether by car, bike, public transport or on foot. And there are many different types of houses in my neighbourhood so there is something for everyone. There are many schools in the area. Secondary and primary. Not all schools are equally good, but there are plenty of options. The neighbourhood is generally quite clean, there isn't a lot of litter. However, you have to watch out for dog poo, which isn't always pleasant. One point for improvement I could mention is that apart from gardens, there is little greenery/nature. I find that a shame.

About Slingeraklaan 62, Utrecht
The asking price is 125% above the neighbourhood average of €797,000, making it the most expensive of the 10 homes currently for sale in Langerak. However, the house is significantly larger (198 m² vs. 118 m² average) and newer (2017 vs. mostly older stock). The price per m² is not directly comparable because of the plot and energy label, but it is clearly positioned at the top end of the market.
The home has an energy label A++, which is the highest possible rating. This means very low energy costs for heating and electricity, as the house is well insulated and likely equipped with modern installations like a heat pump and solar panels. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have label A+ or better, so this is above average.
The plot measures 525 m², which is generous for a detached house in this area. The listing does not specify the garden layout, but a plot of this size typically includes a private garden. Given the recent construction (2017), the garden is likely well-maintained and designed for low maintenance.
Langerak has a family-friendly profile: 795 households have children, and 62% of homes are single-family houses. Residents mention plenty of safe outdoor play space and good schools nearby. One long-term resident notes the area is 'cosy' and 'everyone is welcome', though another points to some decline in recent years. Overall, it scores 7.53 out of 10.
The train station is 2.2 km away, about a 10-minute cycle or 25-minute walk. The city centre of Utrecht is roughly 5 km, easily reachable by bike or bus. The neighbourhood itself has a high address density (1957 per km²), indicating an urban feel with amenities close by.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: obs De Klimroos at 277 m, Al Amana Leidsche Rijn at 489 m, and KBS De Achtbaan at 828 m. Secondary schools are 1.3 km away on average. Residents note that not all schools are equally good, but there are plenty of options.
Currently, 10 homes are for sale in the neighbourhood. Over the past period, 44 homes were sold, with an average selling time of 31 days. The average sold price was €692,159, which is lower than the current average asking price of €797,000, suggesting some negotiation room.
The plot of 525 m² suggests there is a garden, but the listing does not explicitly mention it. Given the property type (detached house) and year built (2017), it is very likely to have a private garden, but you would need to confirm the exact layout with the agent.
