The neighbourhood is active but not unsafe; there are shops and amenities within walking distance, so you can easily buy a döner and do your shopping at Albert Heijn. There are a few homeless people here who are a bit chaotic, but if you mind your own business, nothing happens.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery often nuisance from people (foreign) who share houses here with too many people. And leave rubbish everywhere on the street. And sometimes I don't feel safe on the street.

About Boddaertstraat 42, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €425,000 is 40% above the average asking price in Laakkwartier-Oost (€302,964) and also above the median (€292,000). However, this is a terraced house, while the neighbourhood has mostly flats (only 6% single-family homes). The price per m² (€4,775) is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,939. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value a house over a flat in this area.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and you can expect high heating and electricity costs. The neighbourhood has mostly older homes (97% built before 1945), so many have poor insulation. You may want to budget for energy-saving improvements.
Reviews are mixed. One resident says it's active but not unsafe if you mind your own business. Another says they feel safe and have had no issues in three years. A third review mentions nuisance from overcrowded houses and litter, and sometimes feeling unsafe. The total number of crimes reported in the area is 580, but without context it's hard to compare.
Albert Heijn is just around the corner (217 m). Ekoplaza and Aldi are within a five-minute walk. There are restaurants and a library within walking distance. A park or garden is just a couple of streets away. The area is very urban, so most daily needs are covered on foot.
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. This gives access to the national rail network.
The nearest primary school is about 1.7 km away (a 20-minute walk), and secondary schools are around 0.8 km away. There are several options within 2.5 km, including Protestant Christian and public schools.
