Zuidwijk, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Hietkamp sits in a lively part of Rotterdam-Zuid. At 64 m² it's compact, and with an F energy label you can expect higher heating costs.

Zuidwijk is a densely populated area (over 13,800 residents) with a mix of families and singles. Reviews are mixed: one resident calls it "quiet" and rates it 7.9, while another describes it as "unpleasant", citing dirt, aggressive begging, and poor amenities. A third says "nice house, not such a nice neighbourhood." Based on four reviews, the average score is 6.6. The neighbourhood Zuidwijk has a high proportion of older housing stock (56.5% built between 1945-1970) and a below-average home-ownership rate of 21%.
For groceries, Albert Heijn and PLUS are both just around the corner. There are several primary schools within a five-minute walk, including Steven Stemerdingschool and Basisschool Christophoor. Secondary schools like Vak College Zuidrand are also close by. The municipality Rotterdam offers extensive amenities, though Zuidwijk itself has limited shops beyond supermarkets, Zuidplein is a ten-minute walk for more variety.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Rotterdam Estate Makelaardij, Rotterdam Estate B.V., and Rotterdam Estate Makelaardij, so it's available through several channels.

Auto-translated to English by AINice house, not such a nice neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIDirty, full of shady types and homeless people who aggressively ask for money. There are plenty of supermarkets, but otherwise only one chemist, Kruidvat. And a few food shops, but almost all of them close early. As for other types of shops, Zuidplein is the nearest option, the neighbourhood doesn't have any. Accessibility is also substandard. Only one bus line runs through the neighbourhood, which is always packed. All in all, an unpleasant neighbourhood. Unpleasant people. Unpleasant surroundings. Unpleasant accessibility. Unpleasant amenities.
Auto-translated to English by AIPros Lots of green, well maintained. Pleasant living and social control is okay. Many amenities nearby. Cons Safety is not great in my opinion. Police should patrol more often. Parking is a nightmare.

About Hietkamp 79, Rotterdam
The asking price is 28% below the neighbourhood average of €344,333, but the flat is also 27% smaller than the average (64 m² vs 88 m²). Given the F energy label and the mixed reviews of Zuidwijk, the price seems keen, it's one of the cheapest available in the area.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and you can expect relatively high energy bills. In the neighbourhood, 47.8% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
The nearest train station is 3.6 km away, so it's not within walking distance. One resident notes that only one bus line runs through the neighbourhood and it's always packed. Accessibility is considered substandard by some.
Reviews are mixed. One resident describes the neighbourhood as 'quiet' and rates it 7.9, while another says it's 'unpleasant' due to dirt and aggressive begging. A third says 'nice house, not such a nice neighbourhood.' The area has a mix of families and singles.
