Houtwijk, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis is a quiet, green part of Den Haag where neighbours know each other and the streets feel safe. The house itself is a well-maintained terraced home from 1998, with a generous 150 m² of living space, that's 44% more floor area than the average home in the neighbourhood. With an energy label A, it's efficient too. The asking price of €525,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €464,000, but the extra space and modern build help explain it. For more context, have a look at other terraced houses in Den Haag.

What I particularly experience as positive are the people here. The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere on the street." Another adds: "Everyone is always open for a chat, the neighbours look out for each other. All amenities are close by. Actually, this is the perfect neighbourhood." The area is very urban (over 4,000 addresses per km²), yet it feels green and spacious. Most homes were built between 1970 and 1990, and about half are owner-occupied.

I've been living in Houtwijk for a while now and overall I'm very satisfied with the neighbourhood. What I particularly experience as positive are the people here. The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere on the street. The area is also clean and well-maintained, which gives a nice and cared-for feeling. Moreover, it feels very safe here; I feel at ease in the surroundings at any time of day. What I find less pleasant is the accessibility of Houtwijk by public transport. There are buses and trams, but the service is limited and connections to other parts of the city are sometimes a bit cumbersome or time-consuming. This makes it difficult for people without a car to get to other places quickly. All in all, I think Houtwijk is a nice and quiet place to live, especially because of the friendly neighbours, the cleanliness and the feeling of safety. Hopefully public transport will be better organised in the future.
Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone is always open for a chat, the neighbours look out for each other. All amenities are close by. Actually, this is the perfect neighbourhood. Everyone neatly cleans up the mess on the street, the houses are beautiful and well-insulated, green spaces are next to the centre which is also nice and spacious. Moreover, there is plenty to do for the children. Accessibility by both public transport and car is fine.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet residential area with lots of greenery. Pleasant living environment and friendly neighbours. Hardly any nuisance. The only downside is no shops in the immediate vicinity.
