Mauritsdwarsstraat

A room in a lively part of Groningen

This rental room on Mauritsdwarsstraat is in the heart of the Oosterpoort neighbourhood. This listing 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 €700 per month, the rent is 55% below the neighbourhood average for rental properties, which is keen for a room in this area. For context, rooms in Groningen vary widely in price.

The Oosterpoort neighbourhood

Oosterpoort is a social, mixed neighbourhood with students, young people, families and singles. One resident says: "It is a social neighbourhood where people are there for each other and easily strike up a conversation. I feel safe here and don't mind taking a walk in the evening." Another describes it as "cosy and, in my opinion, fairly safe. I've never felt uncomfortable." Based on eight reviews, the neighbourhood scores 7.4 out of 10. Most homes are apartments, and many residents live alone. For more on the area, see the Oosterpoort neighbourhood.
