Wittevrouwen, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis 1890s terraced house on Dadelstraat sits in Wittevrouwen, a neighbourhood that feels like a village within the city.

The energy label A is a pleasant surprise for a home of this age, meaning it's well insulated and efficient. At €595,000, the asking price is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €601,125, making it a keen entry point for a terraced houses in Utrecht.
Wittevrouwen is a dense, urban area with over 5,300 addresses per km². It's a young neighbourhood, nearly 40% of residents are between 25 and 45, and dominated by single-person households. The one review paints a stark picture: "Too expensive, dilapidated white neighbourhood," says a resident, describing "vomit, glass, and rubbish" and a "huge nuisance of students." They note that "social housing is only 6 percent" and that the area has become "a white enclave of coke-sniffing egotrippers." It's a single, angry voice, but it's the only one. The neighbourhood Wittevrouwen clearly has tensions around gentrification and studentification.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Jumbo a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Openbare Jenaplanschool Wittevrouwen, is on your doorstep, and two more are within a five-minute walk. Secondary schools are a ten-minute walk away. A park or garden is just around the corner, and a restaurant is on your doorstep. The municipality Utrecht offers all the city's amenities, but the immediate area is well served for daily needs.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via MOIB makelaars & taxateurs.

A fascist neighbourhood that claims to be left-wing. Poorly maintained streets. Everywhere there is vomit, glass, and rubbish. Dirty pavements, graffiti everywhere, every street suffers from a huge nuisance of students. Students overpopulate the area. No diversity, too expensive shops. Only rich white people. Social inequality is clearly visible here. 1000 metres away in Overvecht people have nothing, here in abundance. Full of snobs. Social housing is only 6 percent, deliberately sold off, all homes are being split: unliveable, too much noise, and expanded with extra floors. People earn an average of 6-10,000 per month and look like tramps. There is no cohesion, people are focused on themselves, all islands. The atmosphere is gone. It was once a beautiful neighbourhood, but yuppies, damn students and damn expats have turned it into a white enclave of coke-sniffing egotrippers.
