Many junkies and psychiatric people. Lots of shouting. Lots of rubbish. Poorly maintained. Positive: tram connection
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's not Charlois anymore. I've been harassed several times. Once I was even chased by a tinted person with a face mask while they haven't been worn for a long time. Then as a woman you feel very small. The school is lagging behind because too many children don't speak Dutch, including our children who suffer. Since the flat was renovated, everything has gone downhill. You can count the Dutch on one hand now, it used to be different. They make a mess of it and around the flat there are regularly those balloons, gas cylinders behind the lift, 30 or so. Accessibility is good, the only positive. I have no words for it, but still nothing is done about it.

Auto-translated to English by AIWe live on a nice street with friendly neighbours. Most people say hello on the street, which was different in the village where we used to live. Because this is a close-knit neighbourhood, it's nice and pleasant that people look out for each other. The butcher/supermarket around the corner is unfortunately gone, so we walk to the MCD. Perfectly doable. Public transport is also within walking distance. It's a shame that sometimes household items are left outside and that when bins are overflowing, rubbish is placed next to them. That's why hygiene scores a bit lower here.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have seen and experienced nasty things here. More and more old Rotterdammers are dying and newcomers are replacing them, all kinds of newcomers. The neighbourhood is full of plastic and rubbish on the grass patches and people sometimes throw dirty nappies from balconies into the harbour. Painful to see but the Municipality of Rotterdam keeps it reasonably well maintained, though they could send litter pickers more often.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn my opinion and experience, I find Oud Charlois a pleasant and quiet neighbourhood. It feels like a village within a city. With lots of greenery, playgrounds. Centrally located, you can be in the city centre/Zuidplein/Feijenoord in 10 minutes. I wouldn't want to live in any other neighbourhood.

About Nieuwenhoornstraat 105B, Rotterdam
The asking price is 24% below the average asking price in Oud Charlois (€326,555) and also below the median of €300,000. However, the apartment is smaller than average (55 m² vs 86 m²). Given the lower price per m² (€4,536 vs the neighbourhood average of €3,964), it is priced keenly for its size.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. It means the home has reasonable insulation but not the highest efficiency. Heating costs will be moderate compared to a label A home, but lower than a label G property.
The nearest train station is 4.9 km away, so it is not within walking distance. However, the neighbourhood has a tram connection, as noted by a resident.
Oud Charlois has a mix of households: about 27% have children, while 50% are single-person households. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance. However, some reviews mention concerns about safety and litter, so it is worth visiting at different times.
Currently, 88 homes are for sale in Oud Charlois, with prices ranging from €195,000 to €699,500. The average price per m² is €3,964, so this apartment at €4,536 per m² is slightly above that, but the total price is low due to its compact size.
In the most recent data, there were 819 total crimes reported in the neighbourhood. This is a relatively high number for a neighbourhood of 14,120 residents. Some reviews mention issues with drug use and harassment, so it is something to consider.
