About Helmersstraat 127, Rotterdam
The rent of €2,100 is slightly above the average of €2,067 for rentals in the neighbourhood, but it's within the range of €1,229 to €3,300. Given the 92 m² floor area and the A energy label, the price per square metre works out to about €22.83, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €19.52 per m².

How residents experience their neighbourhood
Very cosy, quiet and a beautiful environment
Auto-translated to English by AINeighbours often argue with their families and shout outside, there's also a lot of renovation going on in the area from early to late, and sometimes strange people hang around the supermarket when it starts to get darker. The buses, metros and train are all nearby, but it's a shame that bus 77 is gone, because now I have to walk quite far to get there. There isn't much nature, since I live almost in the middle of the city. Walking to the metros is also quite a distance. Besides that, I find my neighbourhood very nice. I feel safe and at ease.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe lift is always broken…….and left dirty. Neighbours are okay, not much communication but there is a bit of noise now and then. I feel safe in my neighbourhood. There aren't really any nice playgrounds nearby, which is a shame…

Auto-translated to English by AII think my neighbourhood is nice and cosy, everyone knows each other and always ready for a chat.
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.

How residents experience their municipality
Het is net een klein dorpje, je kunt overal fijn heen fietsen of lopen. Er is ook openbaar vervoer wat het nog makkelijker maakt om ergens heen te gaan. Niet al te ver van het centrum af.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for a few years. There's litter on the ground. But the supermarkets are good in the neighbourhood and there's a community centre. Nice!
Auto-translated to English by AIA very nice neighbourhood. The airport is nearby, but you don't hear a thing. Zestienhovenpark is great for walking or jogging. Many families with children live here. There is a lot of greenery and you see many birds. The best neighbourhood

Auto-translated to English by AIWell, I was born here so I grew up with the neighbourhood as it is now.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is improving more and more each year. Thanks to the rent law, there are fewer slumlords and more and more families. It sometimes still has a bad reputation, but that is undeserved except for a few streets. The location is fantastic, metro, Zuidplein, city centre a quarter of an hour by bike. Zuiderpark is also around the corner and soon the Nelson Mandela park.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe facilities and the apartment itself are nice. But around the building there is a lot of rubbish on the street and junkies.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is and remains a village
