Pieterswijk is right in the centre of Leiden, a busy but cosy neighbourhood. One resident says: "It's right in the centre of Leiden, between the 3 associations. There's not only daytime bustle from tourists but also in the evening from all the students walking through the neighbourhood. Personally, I find it very cosy and not disturbing." The neighbourhood has a very high density of addresses (5,945 per km²), making it strongly urban. Most households are single-person (1,920 out of 2,380), and the average household size is just 1.2. The area is popular with students and young professionals. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Pieterswijk.
For daily groceries, Ekoplaza is on your doorstep, and Hoogvliet is just around the corner. There are also SPAR and Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. For primary schools, Haanstra Basisschool is a five-minute walk, and OBS Lucas van Leyden is also within easy reach. The neighbourhood has plenty of restaurants and a park within a ten-minute walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk away. For more about the wider area, see the municipality Leiden.

It's right in the centre of Leiden, between the 3 associations. There's not only daytime bustle from tourists but also in the evening from all the students walking through the neighbourhood. Personally, I find it very cosy and not disturbing. Furthermore, there are plenty of nice little restaurants and a supermarket nearby. You live close to the water and the Hortus, so there's plenty to do. Unfortunately, getting into this neighbourhood by car is a bit of a course because you're not allowed everywhere and sometimes you have to take huge detours. In my opinion, there isn't enough greenery in the neighbourhood; we do have a park, but more trees could be planted in the streets and surroundings. Most of the greenery is often from the people who live there, not from the municipality. Otherwise, I'd say the housing situation is fine. There are some association houses, owner-occupied houses, and plenty of rental properties.
