Frequently asked questions
About Spui 1, Heerhugowaard
Was €528 a fair price for this studio?
The rent was €528 per month for a 42 square metre studio, which worked out at about €12.57 per square metre. With no other comparable rentals at the time available in the neighbourhood, it was hard to benchmark directly, but for a studio of this size in Rivierenwijk, the price appeared in line with the local market.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C. This is an official registration, which means the home meets a moderate standard of energy efficiency. The label doesn't tell you about the condition of the building itself, just its official energy rating.
What is the neighbourhood like?
Residents have mixed views. One says it's "a nice area, just not very safe," while another describes it as "quiet, cosy" with occasional hassle between neighbours. The neighbourhood has around 3,350 residents, with a mix of families and single people. It's a densely populated area, so you'll find plenty of activity around.
How close are the nearest shops and schools?
The Vomar supermarket is 169 metres away, and an Albert Heijn is 422 metres away. Kindcentrum De Vaart primary school is 293 metres away, and Huygens College secondary school is 671 metres away. A GP practice is 400 metres away, and there's a park just 200 metres from the home.
Is this social housing?
Yes, this was social housing, which meant the rent was regulated and the home was let through a housing corporation. The monthly rent of €528 was below the social housing threshold, so it was aimed at those who qualify for social housing in the Netherlands.
How far is the train station?
The train station is 2.2 kilometres away from the home. That's a manageable cycle or a short bus ride, though the exact bus connections aren't detailed here. For daily commuting, you'd need to factor in that distance.
