Binnenstad-West, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis listing on Westersingel in Groningen 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 €1,520 per month, the rent is above the neighbourhood average of €1,393, but without a floor area it is impossible to say whether that is fair. For context, the average rent per m² in the area is €10.06, and there are currently 9 rental homes available in the neighbourhood. See rental homes in Groningen for other options.

However, I think it's more of a neighbourhood for students or couples. I wouldn't raise my children here. It's too busy for that!" This is based on a single review.

I think it's a nice neighbourhood to live in. It's quiet, yet you're within a 5-minute walk of the city centre or Noordeplantsoen. However, I think it's more of a neighbourhood for students or couples. I wouldn't raise my children here. It's too busy for that!
