I've lived here my whole life, so I'd describe it as having nice neighbours and good amenities. But in terms of safety, a few things are lacking, mainly at shopping centre Drieslag. I don't like walking there alone in the dark. Lots of people wandering around with a big mouth—I'm an 18-year-old girl, so of course I don't feel 'safe' with people like that around. 'Enforcement on Sundays is useless since they're there every day.' Oh, and all the houses are practically falling apart—I'd rather buy a house somewhere else and do it up, you'd probably spend less money than renting or buying one here.

About Ratelaarstraat 36, Arnhem
The asking price of €325,000 is 18% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€398,143). However, the floor area (77 m²) is 26% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 104 m². Homes here sell quickly, typically within 15 days, which suggests demand is strong. Given the lower price per square metre compared to the average, it appears priced for its size.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 37.5% of homes have label A and 25% have label B, so this home's label is below average. The year of construction (1950) also suggests that insulation may be limited.
One resident mentions that safety is a concern, especially around shopping centre Drieslag, and that they don't feel safe walking there alone in the dark. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 52, but no further breakdown is available. It's a mixed area with a young population, and the resident's experience highlights some unease.
Primary schools het Mozaïek (190 m) and Parcivalschool (256 m) are within walking distance. For secondary education, Olympus College is about 530 m away, and there is also a special secondary school (De Brouwerij/Olympus) at 509 m. So school runs are very manageable on foot or by bike.
Aldi is 499 m away, just a five-minute walk. Albert Heijn is 516 m, and Lidl is 733 m. For a larger shop, AH XL is about 1 km away. So daily groceries are easily accessible without a car.
Given the house is a terraced property from 1950, it likely has a back garden. For exact details, you would need to view the property.
