Kleinpolder, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Duyvesteynstraat in Kleinpolder is a real find: 154 m² of living space with an A++ energy label, which is exceptionally efficient. The home was built in 1955 and is now for sale for €549,000. That price is 30% above the neighbourhood average of €421,094, but you get a lot more space, 56% more than the typical 99 m² in the area. So it's on the high side, but the size and label justify it. For comparison, apartments in Rotterdam vary widely, but this one stands out.
Kleinpolder is a mixed, multicultural area with a strong sense of community.

Another resident highlights the social side: 'everyone in the neighbourhood often chats with each other, which keeps the bond with the neighbours fun and cosy.' Both mention downsides, noise from young people at night and a lack of activities for youth, but overall they enjoy living here. The neighbourhood has many families and a mix of ages, with average incomes. For more on the area, see the Kleinpolder neighbourhood.

I've lived here for 14 years and I'll stay here with my daughter. Here in Overschie there's quite a lot to do and shops are within walking distance. Public transport is central here in Overschie for young and old. I don't have real contact with neighbours because I work and sometimes we cross paths. In our block we are there for each other if needed. A downside is that often at night cars are in the street with young people, which can be very annoying. For example... laughing gas, loud music, alcohol and drugs!! But to be honest, we enjoy it here..!!
Auto-translated to English by AIPlus points: everyone in the neighbourhood often chats with each other, which keeps the bond with the neighbours fun and cosy. Downside: it's a shame that not much is organised for the young people in the neighbourhood.
