Accessibility

The safety score is 7.5, but experiences vary. Loes writes enthusiastically: "We live in a very nice, quiet neighbourhood. We all keep an eye out here for safety." Another resident is more critical and states that the neighbourhood is "unfortunately going downhill," with regularly dumped waste and police presence. Laura adds that it "can sometimes be unsafe at night." The cleanliness score of 5.0 is the lowest sub-score and confirms that there is room for improvement in terms of appearance and maintenance of public spaces.

For whom is renting in Jagershoef a good choice?
Jagershoef is best suited for families and starters looking for an affordable, green neighbourhood with good facilities nearby.

So respond quickly if a home becomes available that suits you. Prepare your documents (proof of income, employer's statement) and also register with housing corporations for social housing. If you are considering buying, you can view the supply of homes for sale in Jagershoef as an alternative.
