Very safe and comfortable
Auto-translated to English by AIGreat spot in Rotterdam.
Auto-translated to English by AII live right in the middle of Middelland. It's a very good neighbourhood. There's a real mix of people. There's something for everyone. There are nice singles, schools, playgrounds, Marktplein and a square where fun things are often organised, each time with different themes, and a beautiful wijkpaleis where everyone is welcome, and that brings the neighbourhood closer together. There's also a neighbourhood newspaper that lists the activities at the wijkpaleis / the square / neighbourhood parties. So that everyone knows about them and feels welcome to take part. In this neighbourhood, they think of everyone and try to make everyone feel at home and comfortable in the community of the neighbourhood. Every morning the council cleans everything up and it's almost always tidy in the neighbourhood. There are 4 different trams, 2 bus lines and a metro no more than 5 minutes' walk from my house, so it's also well connected. All in all, it's the best neighbourhood for me to live in; I wouldn't actually want to leave, even though I'll have to soon because of family expansion. I really love this neighbourhood and the people.

About Claes de Vrieselaan 37A, Rotterdam
The asking price of €750,000 is 37% above the neighbourhood average of €548,291. However, this apartment is also 45% larger than the local average (162 m² vs 112 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €4,630, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,124 per m². So while the total price is high, the size-adjusted price is actually in line with the market.
Energy label E indicates that the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity costs compared to homes with labels A, B or C. In the neighbourhood, about 62% of homes have labels A or B, so this apartment is below average in efficiency. The exact running costs depend on usage and energy prices, but label E typically means noticeable heating bills.
Residents report that there are four different tram lines, two bus lines and a metro stop all within a five-minute walk. The nearest train station is 1.9 km away, about a 20-minute walk or a short tram ride. The area is very well connected for getting around Rotterdam.

The apartment was built in 1904, so it's over 120 years old. This is typical for the neighbourhood, where 83.7% of homes were built before 1945. The building likely has high ceilings and period features, but may also have older installations.
