There used to be many more things to do, such as playgrounds and schoolyards, but over time everything has been removed to make way for houses. The neighbourhood has many different cultures and everyone gets along with each other. This neighbourhood is also very close to a swimming pool and shops, such as a supermarket, physiotherapy, childcare, and even several schools.
Auto-translated to English by AIParts of the neighbourhood have become run-down, the shopping centre is old and ugly, lots of loitering youths. A number of flats are really ready to be demolished. Clearly a poorer neighbourhood of Hoogeveen compared to other areas where I have lived before. The centre and station are nicely close by, bus services are also good and there is quite a lot of greenery in the area.

About Valkenlaan 36, Hoogeveen
The asking price of €399,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €352,300 and the median of €365,000. However, this home is 25% larger than the typical home in Wolfsbos (143 m² vs 114 m²), which partly explains the premium. Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €315,304, so the price is on the high side, but you are paying for extra space.
The home has an energy label D. In Wolfsbos, 18.8% of homes have label A or better, and 43.8% have label C. Label D means heating costs will be higher than in a more modern home, but it is not the worst, 18.8% of homes in the neighbourhood have label D or lower. You may want to consider improvements over time.
