Put more green in our neighbourhood and also maintain it
Auto-translated to English by AIGood morning everyone in The Hague, I am Johnvdham, I live in the Joseph Ledelstraat, across from my house is Hobbit, often at night the windows are left ajar, burglars don't sleep at night, please more surveillance in this neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII am johnvdham and live in my own home on the street where I really enjoy myself
Auto-translated to English by AII love all the nature and the park with children. It's soothing and it makes you cheerful. It's quiet, but in 5 minutes you can cycle to all the hustle and bustle you want. My personal neighbours sometimes even organise barbecues with the neighbours. All in all, it's a quiet neighbourhood with lots of nature and it's close to get everywhere from this neighbourhood. Yet my address is sometimes hard for people to find, which is why accessibility is a bit difficult. Sometimes people describe where we are and we explain to them how to get to our house from there. So it's quiet, safe with even a children's park, very green, there aren't many amenities in the neighbourhood itself, but everything is very close, hygienic with responsible residents and a sense of community (at least with my neighbours).
Auto-translated to English by AII always go to the Appie with my husband, it makes me happy, it's safe.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople here love cosiness and there is also a park to play in, quite big, there are 2-3 schools in the neighbourhood and a secondary school, very nice neighbourhood

About Van Swindenstraat 57, 'S-Gravenhage
At €230,000, this is the cheapest of the 37 homes currently for sale in Rond de Energiecentrale. The neighbourhood average asking price is €408,743, so this studio is 44% below that. Given its compact size (39 m²) and energy label D, the price is keen for a buyer looking to enter the market in The Hague.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have a label D or lower, while 45.4% have A or A+. Label D means moderate efficiency; you can expect higher energy costs than a modern home, but it is not the worst. The exact running costs depend on usage and heating system.
At 39 m², this studio is 51% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 79 m². It is a compact living space, typical for a studio. The average price per m² in the buurt is €5,311, so the price per m² here is about €5,897, slightly above average, but the absolute price is low.
Rond de Energiecentrale is very urban with a high density of young adults (41% aged 25-45). Many residents live alone. The area scores 7.88 out of 10 from eight reviews. Some residents mention a desire for more green space and better surveillance, but overall it is a lively, central neighbourhood.
Jumbo is 169 m away and Albert Heijn is 201 m, both within a couple of minutes' walk. There are also other supermarkets like Ekoplaza (709 m) and another Albert Heijn (735 m) nearby.
The nearest primary schools are De Parachute (4.2 km) and Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer (4.9 km). For secondary education, Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are about 5 km away. The neighbourhood average distance to primary education is 0.4 km, so these schools are further out.
The nearest train station is 3.2 km away. That is a bit of a distance, so you would likely rely on trams or buses for rail connections.
