Zuidwijk, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1960s apartment on Bredevoorde sits in a lively part of Rotterdam-Zuid. At 67 m² with an energy label D, it's a practical home for someone starting out or downsizing. The asking price of €275,000 is noticeably keen, about 20% below the neighbourhood average of €344,333, which makes it a sharp option compared to other apartments in Rotterdam.
Zuidwijk is a mixed area with a strong urban feel, very high density and lots of activity. Opinions vary: one resident calls it "quiet" and rates it a 7.9, while another says it's "passable" with a "nice house, not such a nice neighbourhood". A third review is harsher, describing it as "unpleasant" with "dirty streets, shady types, and homeless people who aggressively ask for money". The same reviewer notes that amenities are limited, plenty of supermarkets but few other shops, and only one bus line. Based on four reviews, the average score is 6.6. The neighbourhood Zuidwijk has a mix of families and singles, with many households with children.
For daily shopping, the PLUS supermarket is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. There's also a SPAR express a bit further. Schools are close: the Steven Stemerdingschool for primary education is on your doorstep, and Vak College Zuidrand for secondary education is a couple of streets away. The neighbourhood has a park or public garden within a couple of minutes' walk, and the municipality Rotterdam offers plenty of cultural venues and restaurants, the nearest restaurant is just around the corner.

Auto-translated to English by AINice house, not such a nice neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIDirty, full of shady types and homeless people who aggressively ask for money. There are plenty of supermarkets, but otherwise only one chemist, Kruidvat. And a few food shops, but almost all of them close early. As for other types of shops, Zuidplein is the nearest option, the neighbourhood doesn't have any. Accessibility is also substandard. Only one bus line runs through the neighbourhood, which is always packed. All in all, an unpleasant neighbourhood. Unpleasant people. Unpleasant surroundings. Unpleasant accessibility. Unpleasant amenities.
Auto-translated to English by AIPros Lots of green, well maintained. Pleasant living and social control is okay. Many amenities nearby. Cons Safety is not great in my opinion. Police should patrol more often. Parking is a nightmare.

About Bredevoorde 22, Rotterdam
The asking price of €275,000 is about 20% below the average asking price in Zuidwijk (€344,333) and also below the median of €295,000. Given the 67 m² floor area, that works out to roughly €4,104 per m², which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €3,899 per m². So the price is keen overall, but the per-square-metre cost is in line with local values.
The home has energy label D. That means it's not the most efficient, about 48% of homes in Zuidwijk have a label D or lower. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's worth noting that the building dates from 1960, so some insulation improvements may be possible.
The nearest train station is 3.6 km away, so it's not within walking distance. One resident mentions that only one bus line runs through the neighbourhood and it's always packed. For frequent train travel, you'd likely need a bike or car to reach the station.
There are several supermarkets within walking distance: PLUS is just around the corner (243 m), Albert Heijn is about 700 m away, and a SPAR express is about 1 km. For other shopping, residents mention Zuidplein as the nearest option. The neighbourhood has a park or public garden just 200 m away, and a restaurant is 400 m from the home.
Primary schools are very close: Steven Stemerdingschool is 229 m away, and Basisschool Christophoor is 371 m. For secondary education, Vak College Zuidrand is 343 m away, and Het Praktijkcollege Zuidwijk is 415 m. So school runs are easily done on foot.
Resident reviews are mixed. One review mentions "dirty, full of shady types and homeless people who aggressively ask for money", while another simply calls it "quiet". The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 1,087, but without context it's hard to compare. It's best to visit the area yourself to get a feel.
