So far I think it's a fine neighbourhood, I can walk safely. The only thing is that the supermarkets are far, that's about it. There are many people on the street and everyone says hi.
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood isn't perfect, because there are a lot of loitering youths at the swing set in front of my house, and they set off fireworks or make a lot of noise. The nice thing about this neighbourhood is that there are supermarkets within walking distance, so you can easily grab something quickly. It's not the safest neighbourhood you'll find, because a few months ago a scooter caught fire and someone was beaten up for no reason. In the Vijverhofstraat there is a school with only those kinds of children who ruin the neighbourhood for others, so a better school would help a lot.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a neighbourhood close to the centre of Rotterdam, many amenities and accessibility. Many schools in the area. In terms of hygiene it could be better, it doesn't always smell fresh here, the houses here are quite old and a lot of nature is being removed from the neighbourhood.
