Well, good people get along well here, my only downside is too little control over the parking spaces, a lot of nuisance from youngsters with those balloons.

Experiences from Kralingen-Crooswijk
How residents experience their district
We regularly have trouble with full rubbish bins, causing rubbish bags to be left on the street, and I see in the neighbourhood app that there are issues with stolen packages from delivery services (although I think this is due to the residential building). Furthermore, the area buzzes with students and families and the atmosphere is mostly good, though sometimes noisy.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt 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 AIIt's fairly quiet, everything is nearby and very nice to live
Auto-translated to English by AIDespite all the rubbish on the streets, it is a nice child-friendly neighbourhood with many schools in the area and shops are easily accessible, but there could be a lot less rubbish.
Auto-translated to English by AIMany people just throw everything on the street and the municipality of Rotterdam just leaves it lying around. Otherwise, it's quite nice to live here.

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 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
