We have a very nice street, neighbours look out for each other and help each other when needed. I should add that we are all the first residents, so we know each other. It's just a shame that there is no greenery and there are still houses in the area that are in dire need of a major overhaul. As for greenery, it's poverty stricken in the neighbourhood, and there is little for children. There are a few trees on the street, that's it.

About Aelbrechtskolk 21A, Rotterdam
The asking price of €475,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €440,241 and the median of €400,000. However, the home is 78 m², which is slightly smaller than the average of 91 m² in Bospolder. The price per m² works out to about €6,090, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €5,060. So it's on the high side, but the home's character and location may justify it.
The energy label is D. This means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, about 33% of homes have a label D or lower, while 50% have A or A+.
Bospolder has a mix of households, with about 37% of households having children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, like Valentijnschool and CBS Mozaiek. However, one resident notes that there is little greenery and limited play areas for children, so it's something to consider.
The nearest train station is 3.2 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the area is very well served by trams and buses, given the high urban density.
The neighbourhood recorded 681 total crimes in the latest data. This is a relatively high number, but it's typical for a very urban area. The resident review mentions that neighbours look out for each other, which can contribute to a sense of safety on the street.
