This neighbourhood is a mix of all nationalities and very popular, and not to mention we live close to the Rotte
Auto-translated to English by AIWe've been living in this neighbourhood for 4 years now and it's fine, and people are there for each other with help when needed, people still greet each other here and everyone knows each other, only the hygiene could be better
Auto-translated to English by AIThe house is fine but people throw all sorts of things on the street, especially food, and I've been living in a construction pit for over 2 years.
Auto-translated to English by AII find the neighbourhood rather one-sided in terms of residents
Auto-translated to English by AIIn this neighbourhood you'll find cosy pubs, sports clubs, schools, an abundance of shops, a choice of almost every supermarket (except Jumbo). In the last few years, more and more students have come to live in and around the Zwart Janstraat (shopping street). That creates a lively atmosphere and occasionally some noise from parties, but I certainly don't mind it. It's a mix of various ethnicities, everyone is helpful and greets each other. A few years ago, the neighbourhood was really a mess, it seems to have improved a bit now, but you can't call it clean. The Zwart Janstraat was a Formula 1 circuit, but the municipality put a stop to that with extremely high thresholds and confusing one-way streets. Occasionally, some cars still race through the side streets with an enormous racket. I wouldn't let children play outside alone quickly, especially after dusk. There are sometimes unpredictable (sometimes addicted) individuals roaming around, especially past the Noordsingel around those small sports fields. My bike was stolen last year when I wasn't looking. Likewise, some other, more valuable belongings of residents. So watch your belongings. Crooswijk borders the Oude Noorden; this neighbourhood is often in the news in mid-2023 with bomb threats. I haven't seen or heard this kind of crime here, so I can't confirm that. All in all, a vibrant neighbourhood where you won't get bored with everything you need nearby. But with a slight ghetto feel (3 out of 10), that's how I would describe it to give you an idea ;).

About Bergweg 112C, Rotterdam
The asking price is 25% below the neighbourhood average of €470,689, but the apartment is also 29% smaller than the average (67 m² vs 95 m²). Given that it's a brand-new build with an A+++ energy label, the price per m² works out to about €5,299, slightly below the neighbourhood average of €5,567 per m². So it's priced keenly for what it offers.
The energy label is A+++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In the neighbourhood, only 14% of homes for sale have label A+ or better, so this apartment is ahead of the curve.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: De Fontein (240 m), Hildegardis (248 m), and Quadratum (313 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is about 1.1 km away. The area has 166 schools within 5 km, so plenty of options.
Dirk is just 136 m away, Albert Heijn at 204 m, and Lidl at 246 m, all within a couple of streets. For a bigger shop, Hoogvliet and Coop are about 500 m away. Daily groceries are very convenient.
The neighbourhood has a total of 1,214 recorded crimes, which is relatively high for a dense urban area. However, resident reviews mention a strong community feel where people look out for each other. One resident noted that hygiene could be better, but overall safety is not a major concern in the reviews.
The neighbourhood has a mix of households: 58% are single-person, 28% are households with children, and 21% are couples without children. The average household size is 1.9. With many young adults (25-45 years make up 36% of the population), it's a lively area.
