In addition, there are sufficient amenities in the neighbourhood, making daily life easy and pleasant. Whether it's shops, schools, or other important facilities: everything is easily accessible. The accessibility of the neighbourhood is excellent, whether by public transport, car, or bike. In short: the Noordpolderbuurt is for me a quiet, safe, and social neighbourhood where people enjoy living and where the atmosphere feels positive and familiar.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a decent neighbourhood with plenty of parks and other amenities. However, there are quite a few problems in the area, such as nuisance and dangerous people who harass you. Additionally, it's often dirty because rubbish isn't collected often enough. Despite all this, I'm quite satisfied with living in this neighbourhood.

Close to the city centre, which is of course very nice. There is also a forest nearby where you can explore nature. Fun activities for children, like going to the petting zoo. There are also community centres where you can meet people and do fun activities. In short, this is where you want to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery beautiful river, the water is a bit dirty but that doesn't matter, very nice ladies and the streets are tidy, it's very cosy and there is a snack bar in the Noordoostpolderbuurt
Auto-translated to English by AIIf something ever goes wrong, it's not immediately 'yes police', but we usually talk it out among ourselves. We trust each other that someone won't immediately be reported if, for example, they make noise. Usually we just address the neighbour directly instead of making a big deal out of it.
Auto-translated to English by AII’ve lived in Laak as an international student for over a year now and I had great experiences with the people and amenities available. Everyone speaks English and I have experienced no harassment about not being Dutch.

About Minckelersstraat 68, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €500,000 is 72% above the neighbourhood average of €290,397 and is the highest among the 29 homes currently for sale in the Noordpolderbuurt. However, the home is also much larger than average: 151 m² versus 76 m². The price per square metre works out at about €3,311, which is below the neighbourhood average of €3,998 per m².
