What does a rental property cost in Ter Kleefkwartier?
Renting in Ter Kleefkwartier is not cheap. In the free sector, the average rent over the past year was €2,364 per month, with a range of €825 to €4,245. That is steep, especially compared to the Haarlem average. The explanation lies partly in the housing stock: only 29% of the more than 5,400 homes are rental properties, and of those, 11% are owned by housing associations. The remaining 18% fall under private landlords and the free sector. Anyone considering renting an apartment in Ter Kleefkwartier must therefore reckon with high prices and limited supply. The average WOZ value of €659,000 is well above the Haarlem average of €480,000, which directly impacts rental prices. At the top of this page you will always find the current daily snapshot of rental listings and the most recent prices.
Quiet living with high pavements and dog mess: the honest story of Ter Kleefkwartier
Ter Kleefkwartier scores a 6.6 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl based on 12 resident reviews. That is not an exceptionally high score, and when you read the reviews, you understand why. Residents appreciate the relative quiet on the streets and the good accessibility (7.2), but there are also clear frustrations. Resident Nelleke sums it up succinctly: the pavements are in poor condition, with high slabs that are dangerous for wheelchair users and the elderly. "You'll break your neck" she writes, and she is not the only one to mention this. In addition, several residents complain about dog mess on the pavements, stray cats, and even rats and mice. The score for cleanliness (5.4) is therefore the lowest of all categories.
Yet the neighbourhood has clear qualities. The greenery scores a 6.9: Kleverpark and the area around Schoterveenpolder offer space for walking. The neighbourhood has acquired a village character, as residents describe it, with the associated advantages and disadvantages. "Just become a village, gossiping, pffffffff" writes Nelleke, indicating that the social dynamic is not pleasant for everyone. The community score of 6.7 confirms that picture: it is not unsociable, but not particularly close-knit either. You can read more experiences and all sub-scores on the neighbourhood page of Ter Kleefkwartier.
In terms of sub-areas, the character varies considerably. The area around Kleverpark-noord is greener and more spacious, while the Ripperdabuurt is more densely built and has a more urban feel. In Bomenbuurt-west and Kweektuinbuurt you will mainly find family homes from the 1930s to 1960s. Parking is a recurring problem throughout the neighbourhood: cars are everywhere, including on pavements, contributing to the unsafe feeling that some residents describe. The municipality of Haarlem has plans for pavement improvements, but residents have seen little of this so far.
Renting in Ter Kleefkwartier: for whom and for whom not?

Auto-translated to English by AIPositive. Through urban renewal we moved from a working-class neighbourhood where we lived very cosily to the Kleverpark. A neighbourhood for the better class. We've now lived here for over 30 years and see the area changing into a real yuppie neighbourhood. Complete with cargo bikes and conversations that contain more English words than Dutch.
