Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a shame that so much rubbish is thrown outside the bins in the neighbourhood, and that bulky waste is not reported by residents, resulting in a lot of litter and vermin.
Auto-translated to English by AIUnfortunately, Lombardijen has deteriorated significantly, especially in the last 10 years. You can see it visibly becoming impoverished, which is such a shame for such a beautiful neighbourhood that always had a reputation as a nice, clean, tidy neighbourhood. Unfortunately, both the residents and certainly the municipality of Rotterdam contribute to this. Safety is hard to find, drug nuisance, nuisance at the underground containers where all household items are just dumped. Rubbish on the street, which a number of residents try to keep up with by regularly picking it up, otherwise we see the rats and mice dancing merrily around the containers. And this is just a small impression of the waste pit of Rotterdam. The municipality must stop cutting costs and handing out fewer bonuses to the higher-ups, use money for the neighbourhoods and ensure that it becomes liveable again for the real Rotterdammers.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a decent neighbourhood but there could be improvements like more bins and more cleaning of the rubbish on the street.

About Molenvliet 117, Rotterdam
The asking price of €285,000 is 31% below the average asking price in Lombardijen (€413,958) and also below the median of €299,250. However, the apartment is smaller than average (70 m² vs 112 m²) and has an F energy label, which explains the lower price. Recently sold homes in the neighbourhood went for an average of €329,070, so this listing is priced to attract buyers.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have higher heating costs compared to a more modern property. In Lombardijen, over half of homes (52.7%) have a label D or lower, so an F label is not unusual for a building from 1961.
The nearest train station is 1.1 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The high address density (2,655 per km²) indicates a very urban environment with frequent public transport options.
A Lidl is 177 metres away, and a Jumbo is 204 metres away, so daily groceries are within a couple of minutes' walk. There is also a hospital within reach, as noted by residents. For dining, a restaurant is 0.4 km away, and a library is 0.8 km away.
Lombardijen is described by residents as quiet and decent, with everything at hand. It has a mix of families and singles, and the average household size is 2.0.
