Welgelegen, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis listing does not state a house number, postcode, property type, floor area, year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €1,050 per month, it is on the high side compared to the average rent of €973 in Welgelegen, but without floor area it is hard to judge value. For context, see other rental homes in Leeuwarden.
Welgelegen is a compact neighbourhood with 1,645 residents, mostly young adults and singles, 785 one-person households and a small household size of 1.4. One resident calls it a "Cosy neighbourhood": "Atmospheric neighbourhood with nice neighbours. Houses with a stately character interspersed with smaller workers' cottages. You can feel the history, you can walk straight into the city centre." Another review is more critical: "It's fine to live here, as long as you stay in your own house. There are huge drug problems in the neighbourhood and cars speed by. So cats can't safely go outside either." The neighbourhood Welgelegen has a very high urban density, with over 3,900 addresses per km².
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo and Lidl are a couple of streets away. Primary school IKC de Kinderkoepel is a five-minute walk, and several secondary schools from CSG Comenius are within a ten-minute walk. The municipality Leeuwarden offers a train station 1.9 km away, a park within a ten-minute walk, and plenty of restaurants nearby.
