Nieuwe Westen, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1918 apartment on Burgemeester Meineszlaan has a warm, old-fashioned feel with its energy label D, not the most efficient, but full of character. At 74 m² it's compact, and with a price of €335,000 it sits well below the neighbourhood average for apartments in Rotterdam. That's a keen price, partly because the floor area is smaller than the local norm.
Nieuwe Westen is a lively, diverse part of Delfshaven. One resident calls it 'a jack of all trades', noting the mix of nationalities and activities for all ages. Another describes it as a 'quiet neighbourhood' during the day, though less so in the evening. Based on five reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 7.2. It's densely built, with mostly pre-war housing and a young population, many in the 25-45 age bracket. The neighbourhood Nieuwe Westen is very urban, with over 6,800 addresses per km².
Your daily routine is well served here. Albert Heijn is just around the corner for groceries, and Dirk is a couple of streets away. For school runs, Emmausschool is on your doorstep, and the Rotterdam Designcollege is a short walk. The municipality Rotterdam offers plenty of parks and restaurants within walking distance, and a GP is a five-minute walk away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via vandeVijver makelaardij and also appears on Pararius, so it's available through several channels.

I live in a noisy house myself and have a lot of noise from the neighbours. Which is why I'm looking for another house. But apart from that, it's a nice neighbourhood here. With many nationalities living together in one neighbourhood. There are many activities for all ages. And there are many educational locations in my neighbourhood. But in my flat, there are also people who unfortunately just throw rubbish down from their window. As a result, there are food scraps behind the houses near the storage units and on the roof of the storage units.
Auto-translated to English by AII find my neighbourhood safe during the day, less so in the evening. Many asylum seekers walk around, who spoil things.
Auto-translated to English by AIDistant, people live there but then again not really
Auto-translated to English by AINot bad but could be better
Auto-translated to English by AIHet nieuwe westen is a nice neighbourhood but with many points for improvement. These points are already being worked on hard and the situation is already much better compared to 5 years ago.

About Burgemeester Meineszlaan 77B, Rotterdam
The asking price is 35% below the neighbourhood average of €514,034, but the apartment is also 33% smaller than the typical home in Nieuwe Westen. Given the size and energy label D, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact pre-war flat in this area.
The energy label is D. In this neighbourhood, most homes for sale have a better label, only about 20% are D or lower. Label D means the home is not very energy-efficient, so heating costs will be higher than in a modern home. The building dates from 1918, so insulation is likely limited.
Residents give mixed views. One says it's safe during the day but less so in the evening, mentioning 'asylum seekers' as a concern. Another notes that some people throw rubbish from windows. The total number of crimes in the area is 1,224, which is relatively high for a neighbourhood of this size.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, so it's not within walking distance.
The building was constructed in 1918, so it's over a century old. The energy label D suggests the original structure hasn't been fully modernised. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so you should expect some wear and tear typical of a pre-war apartment.
Yes, daily essentials are close by. Albert Heijn is 450 m away, and Dirk is 590 m. For primary education, Emmausschool is just 254 m from the door, and the Rotterdam Designcollege (secondary) is 258 m. Several other schools are within a few hundred metres.
