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.

About Roo-Valkstraat 18A, Rotterdam
The asking price of €395,000 is 24% below the neighbourhood average of €518,265, which makes it keen compared to other homes in Agniesebuurt. However, the apartment is also smaller than average at 58 m² versus 91 m². The price per square metre works out at about €6,810, which is above the neighbourhood average of €5,599 per m², so you are paying a premium for the compact size.
The energy label is D, which is average for an older home. In the neighbourhood, most homes for sale have better labels: 31% have label A and 19% have A+. Label D means heating costs will be moderate but not as low as a modern home. The home was built in 1953, so insulation may be less efficient than newer builds.
The nearest train station is 1.5 km away, which is about a 15-20 minute walk or a short cycle. This makes it convenient for commuting to other parts of Rotterdam or further afield.
Residents give mixed reviews. One says they can walk safely and people are friendly, but another mentions loitering youths, noise from fireworks, and incidents like a scooter fire and an assault. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 690, which is relatively high for an urban area. It's a lively, central neighbourhood but not the quietest.
Yes, several supermarkets are just around the corner. Albert Heijn and Aldi are both about 500 metres away, and there are AH to go options within 600 metres. For daily shopping you can easily walk.
There are many schools in the area. A secondary school, Accent Praktijkonderwijs Centrum, is just 125 metres away. Other secondary schools like Horeca Vakschool Rotterdam and Montessori Mavo are within a ten-minute walk. Primary schools such as Kindcentrum de Klimop are also within walking distance.
At 58 m², this apartment is 36% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 91 m². It's a compact home, typical of older apartments in the city centre. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €5,599, so this home's price per m² is higher due to its smaller size.
The neighbourhood has a mix of residents, but only about 500 households have children out of a total of 2,123 homes. Many households are single-person (1,275). There are schools and playgrounds, but some residents mention issues with loitering youths and noise, so it may not be the quietest for families with young children.
