I live in a noisy house myself and have a lot of noise from the neighbours. Which is why I'm looking for another house. But apart from that, it's a nice neighbourhood here. With many nationalities living together in one neighbourhood. There are many activities for all ages. And there are many educational locations in my neighbourhood. But in my flat, there are also people who unfortunately just throw rubbish down from their window. As a result, there are food scraps behind the houses near the storage units and on the roof of the storage units.

About Pupillenstraat 13D, Rotterdam
The asking price of €250,000 is 51% below the neighbourhood average of €514,034, but the apartment is also smaller than average at 45 m² versus 111 m². The price per m² works out to about €5,556, which is above the neighbourhood average of €4,725 per m². So while the total price is low, you are paying a premium per square metre for a compact, energy-efficient home.
The apartment has an energy label A, which is very efficient. This means heating costs are likely to be low compared to older homes. In the neighbourhood, only about 27% of homes have label A, and 8.5% have A+, so this is a strong point.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle ride.
Residents' views vary. One says it feels safe during the day but less so in the evening, mentioning asylum seekers. Another notes litter issues from neighbours. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 1,224, but without a per-capita figure it is hard to compare.
The floor area is 45 m², which typically suggests a one-bedroom or studio layout, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given that the property is an apartment in a pre-war building, outdoor space is unlikely but not confirmed.
Primary schools within walking distance include CBS Mozaiek (30 m), De Vierambacht (340 m), Valentijnschool (368 m), and IKC de Ark (424 m). For secondary education, MEX010 is just 193 m away.
The neighbourhood is very urban with a high address density, so bus and tram stops are likely within walking distance. The nearest train station is 2.4 km away.
