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 Heemraadssingel 118A, Rotterdam
The asking price is 96% above the average asking price in Middelland (€548,291), but the average includes many smaller and less distinctive homes. The price per m² works out at about €13,608, compared to the neighbourhood average of €5,124 per m². That's a big premium, but it reflects the sought-after singel location and the character of the building.
At 79 m², this apartment is 29% smaller than the average home in Middelland (112 m²). That's partly because many homes in the area are larger family flats or houses. The compact size is typical of pre-war apartments on the singel, where space was often allocated differently.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war building. It means the home has some insulation and double glazing in places, but heating costs will be moderate. In Middelland, about 30% of homes have label A, 22% label B, and 17% label C, so this home is in the middle of the pack.
Residents feel safe. One review says: "Very safe and comfortable." The total number of reported crimes in the neighbourhood is 1,214, but that covers a wide area and includes minor offences. The neighbourhood is well maintained, with street cleaning every morning.
