Very many so-called confused people in the neighbourhood under the influence of something. I think they should look at how to keep these kinds of people out of the neighbourhood as much as possible.

About Kerkstraat 12, Bergen Op Zoom
The asking price is 133% above the average asking price in the Centrum neighbourhood (€381,381) and is the highest of the 59 homes currently for sale. However, this home is also much larger than average (244 m² vs 123 m²) and is a monumental property from 1750. The price per m² (€3,643) is in line with the neighbourhood average of €3,586, so the premium is mainly due to size and character.
With 244 m² of living space, this home is 98% larger than the average home for sale in Centrum (123 m²). The plot of 301 m² is also generous for a townhouse in the centre. Most homes in the neighbourhood are smaller, often flats or compact terraced houses.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a pre-war property. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not as good as modern standards. Given the age (1750), you can expect some heating costs, but label C is a decent starting point. In the neighbourhood, 25.5% of homes have label D or lower, so this is above average.
Bergen op Zoom train station is 1.6 km away, about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. The station offers connections to Roosendaal, Antwerp, and Amsterdam.
The CBS data records 460 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a per-capita figure it is hard to compare. One resident review mentions "confused people" and suggests keeping them out, while another says it is a "nice and cosy neighbourhood." As with any city centre, it is a mixed picture.
Yes, several primary schools are within walking distance: RK Basisschool Sancta Maria (127 m), Basisschool De Krabbenkooi (364 m), and Montessori Kindcentrum (514 m). For secondary education, MollerJuvenaat is 556 m away. All are easily reachable on foot.
