New residents, sneaky, accuse me of a rat infestation, I get the housing association on my back. There is no rat infestation. Harassing, they want to get rid of me, that's clear, but I'm not leaving a house where I've lived since 2003. Those PMD bags are put out at times when they're not collected, that attracts vermin. Everyone is very much to themselves, I don't mind because I am too. Dogs bark, one sits locked in a cage all day, never goes outside, maybe gets walked once every 6 months. Next to me they have guinea pigs outside in a hutch, food scraps everywhere, and then I'm accused of a rat infestation? I don't even have a pet, I regularly have a gardener come because I can't do it myself anymore. Mould in the bathroom, airing doesn't help. Kitchen installed, a complete farce, but a woman can't read drawings *cough* and then they come a year ago asking if I want a different kitchen, I'm not going to sit in the noise and mess for another whole week, and there's nothing wrong with that kitchen.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe had a beautiful neighbourhood. Neat streets everywhere tidy. It's starting to look like a rough area now. Sloppy dirty.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe had a beautiful neighbourhood. Now some places look like a scrap heap. Most people want to leave here.
Auto-translated to English by AIGenerally good, I have no contact with 1 neighbour; quarrel is a strong word but several people have had difficulties with this neighbour. It is a fairly quiet neighbourhood and I have good contact with some people, the neighbours across the street are friends. But it's not like it used to be, the social cohesion has decreased. The cohesion that exists takes place between small and thus separate groups on the street. But overall, it's good living, fairly quiet.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe poor road surface was supposed to be replaced ten years ago, along with the sewer system. A few neighbours are sociable towards various people. Many people on the street have little contact with each other. The municipality of Sluis is only concerned with increasing the burden on citizens every year, as well as the water board, etc. You don't see them and you don't hear from them!

About 'T Schuttebocht 23, Oostburg
The asking price of €299,000 matches the median sale price in Oostburg exactly, so it's in line with the local market. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €2,664, which for 137 m² would come to about €365,000, but that average includes larger homes. Given the energy label D and the 1966 build, the price seems reasonable.
Oostburg has a mixed reputation. Some residents feel the area has declined, with one saying it's 'starting to look like a rough area' and another noting it went 'from beautiful to ugly.' However, there are also quieter streets. The population is older, with many single-person households, and the area is not very urban (urbanity score 4 out of 5).
The nearest train station is 48.9 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by rail. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
Aldi and Albert Heijn are both within a five-minute walk (322 m and 366 m respectively). Jumbo and Lidl are about 828 m away, a ten-minute walk. For a wider selection, there's a SPAR 5.9 km away.
There are three schools within 1 km: Basisschool Sint Bavo (849 m), Basisschool de Berenburcht (890 m), and Zwin College for secondary education (625 m). All are within a ten-minute walk.
The home has energy label D, which is average for a house of this age. In Oostburg, 30.8% of homes have label D or lower, so it's not unusually inefficient. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like insulation could help.
