It is a very safe neighbourhood. It is clean and beautiful with its nature and houses. The metro and tram are nearby and from there you can get anywhere really. There are also always enough shared bikes/scooters in the area. For children, there are plenty of schools and sports facilities in the neighbourhood. A playground is not very close, only a big one on the Oudedijk. But there are enough small parks to play in, or on school playgrounds. There are plenty of nice little cafes and ice cream shops.

Auto-translated to English by AII grew up in Kralingen so from my perspective it's a very nice, cosy neighbourhood, easily accessible by e.g. metro or tram. Sometimes there are dangerous incidents, like shootings, but that's almost never and hardly anyone actually experiences them. There are often people trying to steal bikes. The hygiene is fine, it's not a dirty neighbourhood... but there is a lot of litter, especially plastic. I went to school here myself, so I think the education is very good; most people get an average or higher secondary school recommendation, so there's nothing to complain about. A pity is that there aren't that many facilities; of course there's the Kralingse Plas and the forest, but compared to e.g. Hillegersberg-Schiebroek it's a bit less entertaining because there are many cafes and shops there, and in Kralingen I miss that. But it remains my hometown!

About Kralingseweg 85, Rotterdam
The asking price of €650,000 is 34% below the neighbourhood average of €981,625, but the apartment is also smaller than average (69 m² vs 150 m²). The price per square metre works out to about €9,420, which is above the neighbourhood average of €6,246 per m². So while the total price is lower, you are paying a premium per square metre.
Energy label D means the apartment has average energy efficiency. Heating costs will be moderate but not as low as with A or B labels. In the neighbourhood, 38% of homes have label D or lower, so this is fairly common for a building from 1959.
Reviews are mixed. One resident says it is very safe and clean, while another mentions occasional dangerous incidents like shootings, but notes they are rare. A third review complains about aggression. The total number of crimes in the neighbourhood is 521, which is relatively high, but many residents feel safe day-to-day.
The metro and tram are within walking distance, making it easy to reach the city centre and other parts of Rotterdam. The nearest train station is 2.7 km away, so for national rail connections you would need a short bus or bike ride.
Yes, there are several primary schools within a few minutes' walk, including Montessorischool Kralingen and Vrije School Vredehof. For secondary education, the Vrije School Zuid-Holland and Libanon Lyceum are also nearby. Residents generally rate the education positively.
A SPAR supermarket is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. There are also plenty of nice little cafes and ice cream shops, as one resident notes. For a wider range, the city centre is easily accessible by tram.
