Suffering from the waste and drug users in the area. I am a reasonably large-built man so I certainly don't feel unsafe, but many neighbours certainly do, and I miss the trees and nature that used to be there.

About Thorbeckestraat 22, Vlaardingen
The asking price of €380,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €351,382 and the median of €317,500. However, this house is larger than average (105 m² vs 100 m²) and has a 90 m² plot. Given that similar homes in Centrum sold for an average of €313,708, the price is on the high side, but the size and central location may justify it.
Centrum is a very urban area with a high density of addresses and a mix of residents. It has a young population, many singles, and a reasonable number of families. The one resident review mentions issues with waste and drug users, but also says they don't feel unsafe. The crime rate is relatively high, so it's worth being aware of that.
The nearest train station is 6.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus, or car to reach it.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: IKC De Bavinck (234 m), IKC 't Palet (333 m), and IKC Erasmus (495 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is about 1.6 km away, which is a 15-20 minute walk or a short bike ride.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war house. It means the home has some insulation but is not as efficient as modern homes. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like double glazing or better insulation could help.
The listing does not mention a garden. The plot size is 90 m², which could include outdoor space, but it is not stated whether that is a garden, courtyard, or something else.
