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 AIWe had a beautiful neighbourhood. Neat streets everywhere tidy. It's starting to look like a rough area now. Sloppy dirty.

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 Ceres 15, Oostburg
Yes, €750 is exactly the average rent for a studio in Oostburg. With 43 m², that works out at €17.44 per m², which is typical for the area. There is only one studio available right now, so the price is in line with what you'd expect.
The energy label is C, which means the home is reasonably energy-efficient. You won't face extremely high heating costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label home. The exact costs depend on your usage.
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.
Reviews are mixed. Some residents mention that the neighbourhood has declined and that people keep to themselves. One review describes tensions with neighbours over waste and pets. It's a quiet area, but not without its issues.
The listing does not mention a garden or any private outdoor space. The plot size is not given, so it's best to assume there is no garden. There is a park just 0.2 km away for outdoor recreation.
The property is a studio, so it has one main living/sleeping area plus a separate kitchen and bathroom. The exact layout is not detailed in the listing, but studios typically have an open-plan layout.
