About Reederijstraat 5, Alblasserdam
The asking price of €385,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €378,083 and the median of €367,000. Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €363,143. Given that only six homes are currently for sale, the price reflects limited supply, but it is on the high side compared to recent sales.
Energy label F is the second-lowest rating on the scale. It means the home is not energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity costs. The label is an official registration from EP-Online; it does not specify which aspects of the home cause the low rating.

How residents experience their district
We're not a neighbourhood where people pop round for tea, but it's very nice to live here and I never feel unsafe, not even when I used to walk the dog late at night. Occasionally there's a neighbourhood BBQ with a bouncy castle for the children. The area is kept tidy, there's a neighbourhood app where things are shared and a neighbourhood app that's really for safety. In that you can post things like suspicious characters in the area, etc. If necessary, the administrator contacts the police. But that rarely happens. There's no nosiness, but people do look out for each other. Just a really nice neighbourhood to live in.

Auto-translated to English by AICosy neighbourhood, social but not over the top. Nice living here. Happy with the nature, peace, space. Accessibility is good and little police for problems.
Auto-translated to English by AII would describe the neighbourhood itself as pleasant. I don't experience any nuisance, people are generally friendly, and I feel safe. What I do miss is greenery and especially nice play areas for the children. Our neighbourhood consists of many one-way streets, except for our street. So a lot of traffic in the area goes through our street. In itself not a problem, but sometimes people drive too fast. I have two young children and I really don't like that. I feel safe in the neighbourhood, but not always in terms of the traffic situation. As for parking, it would be nice if this could be expanded. I would like it if there were more greenery in the neighbourhood, also thinking of the children in the sense of one nice larger playground or a few small playgrounds.
