The best neighbourhoods in The Hague
44 neighbourhoods ranked on livability, property value, safety, noise and distance to a station or school — with the figure behind each place.
Average WOZ value
€457,744
The WOZ value is the municipality's own valuation, set as of 1 January the previous year. In a rising market asking prices in The Hague usually sit above it — treat this as a floor, not a market value.
Gross annual income needed to borrow that amount
€79,500
One income, no student debt or other loans, 30-year annuity at 4.5%, using the 2026 Nibud standards. Buyer's costs come on top and cannot be added to the mortgage. On two incomes the bar is lower.
What is the WOZ value and why does it matter?
The WOZ value determines your municipal taxes and is used by banks as an indication of property value.
Ground lease: what is it and what does it cost?
With ground lease you buy the house but not the land. This can involve significant annual costs — especially in Amsterdam.
Self-occupancy and non-occupancy clauses explained
Two clauses buyers routinely confuse: the duty to live in the home yourself, and a seller’s declaration that they never lived there at all.
