Cosy. I know many people in the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIIf necessary, people help each other. It's a village in a big city. If necessary, people do grocery shopping for each other.

Auto-translated to English by AIOud IJsselmonde is a green neighbourhood with many elderly residents. People are friendly and helpful. It's not really safe here, for example Park de Twee Heuvelen is not lit at all and many strange people walk around. There is a lot of litter in the area and municipal bins are rarely cleaned, which means quite a lot of pests are roaming around.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt can best be described as multicultural, where most people seem to keep to themselves. If you strike up a conversation, they are surprised. The sense of community could be much better, but they are working hard on that. I quite enjoy it here. In terms of safety, I often see police patrolling, two shopping centres within walking distance, bus and tram right outside. Hygiene leaves something to be desired, especially rubbish dumped on the street. The greenery is left wild, supposedly for the insects, but it's just pure cost-cutting on green maintenance.

About Cornelis Heinricksestraat 24, Rotterdam
The asking price of €250,000 is 29% below the neighbourhood average of €350,608, and also below the median of €277,250. Given that the flat is 70 m² (27% smaller than the average 96 m² in the area), the price per m² works out to about €3,571, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €3,665. So it's priced keenly for its size.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, about 49% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly common for a flat built in 1961.
Groot IJsselmonde has a mix of households: about 33% are families with children, and 46% are single-person households.

The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride.
