Experiences from Ommoord
How residents experience their neighbourhood
My experience with the neighbourhood Ommoord Ommoord is a quiet, green neighbourhood in Rotterdam with a pleasant living environment for young and old. The area offers plenty of space, wide avenues and access to beautiful nature areas such as the Ommoordse Veld and the Lage Bergse Bos. This makes it ideal for walking, cycling and relaxing outdoors. What appeals to me is the sense of peace and safety that the neighbourhood exudes. Although there are occasional minor incidents, it generally feels safe and familiar. The community is friendly and easy-going. In some streets you really see neighbours who know each other and take up initiatives together, for example via neighbourhood app groups or community centres. This contributes to a pleasant atmosphere. The neighbourhood is predominantly clean, with regular maintenance of the streets and rubbish collection. However, there are sometimes spots with litter or full bins, especially around shopping areas. Dog poo also remains a point of annoyance in some places. In terms of housing, Ommoord offers a lot of variety: from spacious family homes to apartments and high-rise flats. Some buildings are a bit dated, but there is investment in renovation. For the price and space you get, it is still relatively affordable to live in this neighbourhood. Education is fine: there are several primary schools and childcare options, easily accessible and generally solid. Secondary schools are a bit further away, but are easy to reach. Extra facilities for children, such as homework supervision or cultural activities, would be a nice addition. What really stands out is how green the neighbourhood is. The spacious layout, the many trees and the nearby greenery make it a nice place for nature lovers or families with children. In this, Ommoord really excels compared to other Rotterdam neighbourhoods. What could be better are the amenities. The basics are there – a supermarket, GP and some shops – but the offering is limited and lacks vibrancy. Shopping centres such as Hesseplaats and Binnenhof feel outdated and offer little variety. There is hardly any catering or recreation, which makes the neighbourhood less attractive for those who enjoy going out, culture or sports. Especially young people miss places to meet or be active. More catering, modern sports facilities and lively meeting places would really take Ommoord to the next level.
Auto-translated to English by AIOmmoord is a very pleasant and quiet neighbourhood to live in. There is a lot of greenery around, such as the Ommoordse Veld and the Kralingse Bos within walking distance. This makes it ideal for walking, cycling or just finding your inner peace. The area also feels safe in the evening. The hygiene of the neighbourhood is usually good: streets are clean and rubbish is collected regularly. In terms of housing, there is a lot of variety, from apartments to single-person homes, and the houses are easily accessible. Public transport is also fantastically organised: with the train you are in the centre of Rotterdam in no time. Moreover, there are plenty of shops, supermarkets, schools and sports clubs in the area, so you don't have to travel very far for amenities.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here since 1971 and never left. It's always been a quiet, green neighbourhood, although unfortunately it's been getting worse in recent years due to more crime and a change in residents who don't care as much and throw/leave rubbish on the street. Luckily there are neighbours who occasionally clean the streets, and it would be nice if this group expanded and the neighbourhood started to look a bit tidier.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful green surroundings with park and Ommoordseveld nearby, plenty of nature, on the edge of the city.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience: I live in Ommoord and am very satisfied with the neighbourhood. It is a quiet area, yet well located with a centre, bus stop and metro station nearby. There are many elderly people, but everyone knows each other and greets each other with a smile. It is a nice place to live, especially if you love nature, because we are surrounded by trees and shrubs. In the past there were some problems with mice, but that has become much less now. In addition, there are many dog owners, which makes it easy to get in touch with neighbours. There are also schools in the area, such as near Hesseplaats metro station and Ambachtsland. So far I have always felt safe in Ommoord, and people really look out for each other.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience with my neighbourhood is both positive and negative. I've lived here myself for 7/8 years and enjoy it; there are many children, but after a while they go play elsewhere. Also, it's a downside that you hear ambulances, fire engines and police from the house with the window open, so even if someone is shouting downstairs you can still hear it quite clearly. We've also had problems with rats in the bushes for years, but on the gallery, in the halls and in front of the flat no problem. It's nice and cosy, especially when you get to know your neighbours; they're always there for you and you can always have a parcel delivered to their home. There are many elderly people since there's a retirement home for us (Laurens wonen). The transport here is perfect and walking to Zevenkamp is no problem. Metro/bus nearby and a large shopping centre with Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Action, Blokker, Bruna etc. Very convenient, so we can also use our cellars, which go quite far back and are quite wide; they are behind iron bars, so without a key you CANNOT get in. Cosy neighbourhood and as far as I'm concerned I'll live here until my day comes. Luckily that's still a long way off, so for now I enjoy living in Ommoord. Regards, Jedaiah Mijnals.
Auto-translated to English by AINice quiet part of the neighbourhood, nowadays we live here with multiple nationalities, it's fine, respect for each other, sometimes a bit too much litter, but I clean it up myself or report it to the municipality. I feel quite safe here, not for nothing we've lived in this house in the Bloemenbuurt for 50 years this year. We have everything nearby, shopping centres, different types of schools, public transport, nature, hospital, medical care. Only the outdoor space could be a bit better maintained. Lots of weeds, shrubs that need pruning. Parking at Passiebloem 1 is very unkempt, poor paving due to tree roots pushing up. A few years ago they said it wouldn't be renovated until 2025! The electricity substation at Passiebloem looks terrible, but no matter how hard I try with reports to Stedin, NOTHING happens!
Auto-translated to English by AINice place to live, lots of families and elderly people. Little nuisance and bustle, the city is nearby with all shops and amenities. All supermarkets in the area to choose from

Experiences from Prins Alexander
How residents experience their district
Good
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living in this neighbourhood for 5 years, and I've felt at home here since day 1 when we moved here! It's a cosy neighbourhood with lots of dogs, cats and families with young children! There are plenty of grass patches where I can walk my dog. Close to the metro and Alexandrium. So it's very accessible! I think it's a really nice neighbourhood!!!
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't lived here very long, but the type of housing isn't that great. Otherwise, it's quite a green neighbourhood with the Kralingse Plas nearby and lots of trees.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood to grow up in, quiet atmosphere on the street and you can walk well. The residents are moderately involved with each other but do greet each other friendly. There are several schools with good education and a sports club, which strengthens social cohesion. The metro, bus and two motorways nearby mean you can leave the neighbourhood quickly.
Auto-translated to English by AICan still walk the streets just fine with my little dog in the evening
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is nice, but it remains a student house so there are issues with rats and nuisance. Additionally, it is easily accessible by car or electric bike; with a normal bike everything is just a bit too far.
Auto-translated to English by AII like it here, I love the liveliness, the shops nearby and yet nature close by. I think you have to be careful everywhere for safety.
Auto-translated to English by AII feel at ease in the Alexanderpolder where I have lived my whole life.

Experiences from Rotterdam
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 AIed432f34g
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
