Russische buurt, Zaanstad
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Rozengracht in Zaandam is a compact home with an excellent energy label A++. The listing does not state a year of construction. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €315,000, the asking price is 18% below the neighbourhood average of €383,282, which makes it a keen price for a 51 m² apartment, especially compared to other apartments in Zaanstad.
Two residents have reviewed the Russische buurt, giving it an average score of 5.69 out of 10. One resident says: "This neighbourhood is deteriorating; people are increasingly less willing to keep their own street clean. And from the municipality you can expect absolutely nothing." Another adds: "It's not really safe in the neighbourhood in the evenings. When there has been a market, it often takes another day before it's cleaned up." The neighbourhood is densely populated with 2,730 residents, mostly one-person households, and a high proportion of young adults aged 25-45. For more context, see the neighbourhood Russische buurt.
For daily groceries, Vomar is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn and Ekoplaza are a couple of streets away.

This neighbourhood is deteriorating; people are increasingly less willing to keep their own street clean. And from the municipality you can expect absolutely nothing. A small patch of grass that is used as a poop field for dogs. And on the other side of our house, the Houthaven quay is being built. Away sun, away freedom; the flats are so close that we have to sit with the curtains closed.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's not really safe in the neighbourhood in the evenings. When there has been a market, it often takes another day before it's cleaned up. In my complex, only foreign people live, so I have little contact with the neighbours.
