New residents, sneaky, accuse me of a rat infestation, I get the housing association on my back. There is no rat infestation. Harassing, they want to get rid of me, that's clear, but I'm not leaving a house where I've lived since 2003. Those PMD bags are put out at times when they're not collected, that attracts vermin. Everyone is very much to themselves, I don't mind because I am too. Dogs bark, one sits locked in a cage all day, never goes outside, maybe gets walked once every 6 months. Next to me they have guinea pigs outside in a hutch, food scraps everywhere, and then I'm accused of a rat infestation? I don't even have a pet, I regularly have a gardener come because I can't do it myself anymore. Mould in the bathroom, airing doesn't help. Kitchen installed, a complete farce, but a woman can't read drawings *cough* and then they come a year ago asking if I want a different kitchen, I'm not going to sit in the noise and mess for another whole week, and there's nothing wrong with that kitchen.

Auto-translated to English by AIGenerally good, I have no contact with 1 neighbour; quarrel is a strong word but several people have had difficulties with this neighbour. It is a fairly quiet neighbourhood and I have good contact with some people, the neighbours across the street are friends. But it's not like it used to be, the social cohesion has decreased. The cohesion that exists takes place between small and thus separate groups on the street. But overall, it's good living, fairly quiet.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe poor road surface was supposed to be replaced ten years ago, along with the sewer system. A few neighbours are sociable towards various people. Many people on the street have little contact with each other. The municipality of Sluis is only concerned with increasing the burden on citizens every year, as well as the water board, etc. You don't see them and you don't hear from them!

About Weststraat 4, Oostburg
The asking price of €295,000 is close to the neighbourhood median of €299,000, so it is in line with the market. The home is larger than average (180 m² vs 139 m²), which adds value, but the energy label C is typical for the area. Given the mixed neighbourhood reviews, the price seems reasonable.
The home has energy label C, which is the most common label in Oostburg (38.5% of homes have label C). It means the home is reasonably efficient, but not as efficient as A or B labels. You can expect moderate energy costs.
The nearest train station is 48.9 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by train. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
Based on three reviews, the neighbourhood scores 6.57 out of 10, but the comments are negative. One resident mentions a dead-end street with too many cars and neighbour disputes. Another says the area has become 'sloppy dirty' and 'looks like a scrap heap'. Most people want to leave, according to one review.
There are two primary schools within a five-minute walk: Basisschool Sint Bavo (473 m) and Basisschool de Berenburcht (525 m). The Zwin College for secondary education is 401 m away, also a couple of streets away.
The plot size is 340 m², but the listing does not specify whether there is a garden.
