Mixed neighbourhood with lots of greenery.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe youngsters park their bikes at the GGZ even though it's not allowed, there's a sign. But the guidance has often talked about it with the school.
Auto-translated to English by AII have never felt unsafe in this neighbourhood, not even late at night on the street. I also notice that everyone is always friendly and helpful. What could be improved is more cardboard bins around the neighbourhood to dispose of cardboard, and a chemist's would also be very nice.

About van Miereveltplantsoen 14, Leeuwarden
The asking price is 37% above the neighbourhood average of €334,158, but this home is also 40% larger than the typical Nijlân home (158 m² vs 113 m²). Detached houses are rare in this area, only 24% of homes are single-family, so the price reflects the size and property type. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the extra space and a garden.
The home has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-line. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it's worth noting that 38.9% of homes in the neighbourhood have label C, and a third have a lower rating. So this home is about average for the area.
Residents feel safe. One review says: 'I have never felt unsafe in this neighbourhood, not even late at night on the street.' The total number of crimes recorded in the area is 182, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare. The general sentiment from reviews is positive on safety.
A primary school, Basisschool De Princenhof, is just 111 metres away, on your doorstep. Two secondary schools are within a couple of streets: Gomarus College (140 m) and YnSicht (179 m). There are also several other schools within a 5 km radius.
The train station is 1.6 km from the home, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. That's convenient for commuting to other cities.
The plot is 343 m², which is generous for a home in Nijlân. While the listing doesn't specify the garden layout, a plot this size typically includes private outdoor space. You'd need to view the property to see exactly how it's laid out.
