I myself quite like living here
Auto-translated to English by AIThe worst place I have ever been in my life was yesterday when a group of young men beat him up and smashed my car mirrors while people watched and were afraid to intervene. Eventually someone says I can't call the police and that they will fix the car for you. I wish I could leave this neighbourhood.,,,

About Abeelstraat 9, Breda
The asking price is 21% above the average asking price in Tuinzigt (€392,755). However, this home has an A+ energy label, which is rare for a 1928 house, and it's a terraced house with a garden. The neighbourhood average includes many smaller flats, so the premium partly reflects the property type and energy performance.
The energy label is A+, which is the second-best possible rating. This means the home is very energy-efficient, with low heating costs and good insulation. In Tuinzigt, only about 26% of homes have an A+ label, so this is a standout feature for a pre-war house.
Resident reviews are mixed. One review describes an unsafe incident, while another says they like living there. The neighbourhood has 509 reported crimes, but without context it's hard to compare. It's best to visit at different times to get your own feel.
