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 Westhavenplaats 2, Vlaardingen
The asking price of €300,000 is 15% below the average asking price in Centrum (€351,382) and also below the median of €317,500. Given the 110 m² floor area, that works out to about €2,727 per m², compared to the neighbourhood average of €3,793 per m². So it's priced keenly, though the 1775 build and energy label D mean you may need to budget for upgrades.
Centrum is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It's a mix of singles and families, with many pre-war homes. One resident describes issues with waste and drug users, but also says they don't feel unsafe personally. The area lacks green space according to that review. There are plenty of shops and services within walking distance.
The nearest train station is 6.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd likely need a bike, bus or car to reach it. The area is well served by other local amenities though.
Dirk is just 208 metres away, Albert Heijn at 262 metres, and Lidl at 318 metres. So you have three supermarkets within a five-minute walk. Hoogvliet is a bit further at 805 metres.
There are several primary schools within a few hundred metres: IKC Van Kampen (311 m), IKC 't Palet (316 m), and IKC De Bavinck (561 m). For secondary education, the nearest is 1.6 km away.
The energy label is D, which is average for an older home. It means the house is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs could be moderate to high. You might consider improvements like insulation or double glazing to improve the rating and reduce bills.
The house was built in 1775, so it's over 250 years old. It likely has period features but may need modernisation. The energy label D and the price suggest it's not fully updated. You should budget for potential maintenance and upgrades.
