Indische buurt, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis listing is for a room on Celebesstraat in Groningen, but it does not state a house number, postcode, 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 €696 per month, the rent is 20% below the neighbourhood average of €869, which is keen for a room in this area. For context, rooms in Groningen vary widely in price.
The Indische buurt neighbourhood is a diverse and lively part of Groningen's Oud-Noord district. With over 8,400 residents, it's a densely populated area where most households are single-person (51%) and the average household size is just 1.4. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many young adults aged 15-45. Based on ten reviews, residents have mixed feelings: one calls it a "deprived neighbourhood" with low income, while another says "I feel at home in this neighbourhood. Very diverse, safe and easily accessible." A third appreciates the "lots of nature, close to the centre but very quiet." The area is very urban (address density 5,189), with a park or garden just a couple of streets away.
For daily shopping, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with a PLUS a five-minute walk away and a Lidl a bit further. There are several schools nearby: Openbare Basisschool Karrepad is on your doorstep, and St. Franciscus primary school is a five-minute walk. For secondary education, CSG Wessel Gansfort is a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is well connected, with a train station a ten-minute walk away. The municipality of Groningen offers a vibrant city life with restaurants and cultural venues close by.

Old neighbourhood, generally low income.
Auto-translated to English by AII feel at home in this neighbourhood. Very diverse, safe and easily accessible.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with lots of nature, close to the centre but very quiet.
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't lived here very long, but I'm especially a fan of the green surroundings and walking routes. I was also surprised that people from my block like to chat and know each other reasonably well. On the street I don't always feel very safe, because there are relatively many people with (visible) mental health and/or drug problems. Yet after living here for a short time, I noticed that I need to worry less than I thought and most people are very friendly here. I am less of a fan of the amenities here; only the Plus supermarket is in the neighbourhood, but that's not necessarily very affordable for everyone. Furthermore, there isn't much within walking distance. I also notice that, for example, on my street there is quite a lot of litter (now also a lot of old fireworks) and the gardens are generally not maintained. This could certainly be improved (:
Auto-translated to English by AInice park, close to the centre, two supermarkets nearby, also two hairdressers, community centre with many activities and cheap lunch/dinner around the corner. Second-hand clothing shop, flower shop and a few other shops, including two cafeterias, a pizza delivery, in short plenty of amenities. And also just over 5 minutes by bike from the centre.
Auto-translated to English by AIHave been living here for 5 years, very pleasant. Lots of nice people. Good for starters.
