Auto-translated to English by AIOud IJsselmonde is a green neighbourhood with many elderly residents. People are friendly and helpful. It's not really safe here, for example Park de Twee Heuvelen is not lit at all and many strange people walk around. There is a lot of litter in the area and municipal bins are rarely cleaned, which means quite a lot of pests are roaming around.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt can best be described as multicultural, where most people seem to keep to themselves. If you strike up a conversation, they are surprised. The sense of community could be much better, but they are working hard on that. I quite enjoy it here. In terms of safety, I often see police patrolling, two shopping centres within walking distance, bus and tram right outside. Hygiene leaves something to be desired, especially rubbish dumped on the street. The greenery is left wild, supposedly for the insects, but it's just pure cost-cutting on green maintenance.

About Nieuwenoord 167, Rotterdam
The asking price of €237,500 is 33% below the neighbourhood average of €353,961, and the home is smaller than average at 63 m². Given the price per m² of €3,770 (compared to the neighbourhood average of €3,625), it's priced slightly above the m² rate but still well below the overall average asking price. It's a keenly priced entry-level home.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (built in 1964). In the neighbourhood, 29.1% of homes have label C, while 44.5% have a lower label (D or worse). Label C means reasonable energy efficiency, so heating costs should be manageable but not as low as with a modern A-label home.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. This makes commuting by train feasible but not on your doorstep.
