Not a pleasant neighbourhood to live in. Lots of "special" tenants with mental health care, Brijder Stichting, TBS, alcohol and drug users. I only feel safe when I'm inside my home. The housing association does nothing about the noise and smell nuisance. For 15 years I've regularly had the smell of weed in my home. A mentally disturbed neighbour who makes noise and has threatened me several times, at least one death threat. Cars parked outside the lines, blocking the road to my home. But now the municipality has placed extra concrete bollards, which helps. Neighbours who think the law and rules don't apply to them and then complain about my garden. A noisy, small child upstairs who screams and yells constantly, and is generally unruly, with the mother screaming back. The homes are so poorly soundproofed that I can hear my neighbour sneeze. Unfortunately, I cannot move.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery self-contained. There is some social contact with some residents. The secondary school students cause unrest because they use drugs or smoke weed during breaks. They do this in the streets around Jan arentz secondary school. The park causes a lot of firework use, which means there is a lot of noise especially at night.

About Bakkerstraat 66, Alkmaar
At 94 m² and with an A energy label, the price of €375,000 is in line with the market for mid-terrace houses in Alkmaar. The home has a garden and was built in 1981, so it is a solid family home. Without comparable sales data for the neighbourhood, it is hard to say if it is a bargain, but it is not overpriced.
The home has an A energy label, which is very efficient. That means low heating costs and good insulation. You won't have to worry about high energy bills, and the home is comfortable year-round.
The train station is 2.4 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short bike ride. Alkmaar station connects to Amsterdam and other cities, so commuting is feasible.
Reviews are mixed. One resident describes a mix of rental and owner-occupied homes with some nuisance from tenants with mental health issues, noise, and parking problems. Another says it is a quiet neighbourhood with some social contact, but secondary school students cause unrest. Soundproofing may be an issue in some homes.
Yes, the home has a garden. The plot is 129 m², so there is outdoor space. The exact size and layout of the garden are not specified, but it is a private garden.
With 94 m² and being a mid-terrace house, it likely has three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
