The Stadsdriehoek neighbourhood
Stadsdriehoek is a dense, central part of Rotterdam with a young population: 45% of residents are between 25 and 45, and 63% of households are single-person. The reviews reflect a mixed picture. One resident calls it an "Ideal location" and says they "lived there during my student days." Another is less positive, mentioning a coffee shop opposite and a Salvation Army shelter nearby.
