Vreewijk, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Groene Hilledijk sits in Vreewijk, a leafy pre-war neighbourhood in south Rotterdam. At 65 m² it's compact, but the price of €229,000 is 41% below the neighbourhood average, a keen entry point for a buyer. For context, the average apartments in Rotterdam in this price bracket tend to be smaller or need updating.
Vreewijk was built as a garden village in the 1920s, so it's greener and quieter than much of Rotterdam. One resident calls it 'Quiet' (score 8.0), another says 'Reasonably nice neighbourhood, shame that household waste stays on the street too long' (score 5.75). Based on 14 reviews, the average score is 7.04. The neighbourhood Vreewijk has a mix of families and singles, with many older homes and a strong sense of community.
For groceries, MCD is just around the corner, and SPAR express is a five-minute walk. Albert Heijn, Lidl and Dirk are all within a ten-minute walk. Schools are close too: Zuider Gymnasium is on your doorstep, and primary school De Mare is a couple of streets away. The municipality Rotterdam provides good public transport links, with a tram stop nearby.
At the time of writing the home is listed via CORPOwonen and also on Funda. The energy label is D, which is less efficient than most homes in the neighbourhood, something to factor in.

Auto-translated to English by AIA very unfriendly and unsafe environment for both adults and children. Every month there is a woman/girl raped, people shooting wildly, or a burglary. It is not recommended to go outside after dark. Neighbours don't greet each other and there is always tension between neighbours. Children who tear up flowers/plants. Parents who say nothing about it.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy neighbourhood that's quickly deteriorating, but people still look out for each other. It's a working-class neighbourhood. A shame it's so dirty, etc. But I'm staying. The municipality should deploy more litter pickers, etc., and possibly increase fines for littering.
