Very safe and comfortable
Auto-translated to English by AIGreat spot in Rotterdam.
Auto-translated to English by AII live right in the middle of Middelland. It's a very good neighbourhood. There's a real mix of people. There's something for everyone. There are nice singles, schools, playgrounds, Marktplein and a square where fun things are often organised, each time with different themes, and a beautiful wijkpaleis where everyone is welcome, and that brings the neighbourhood closer together. There's also a neighbourhood newspaper that lists the activities at the wijkpaleis / the square / neighbourhood parties. So that everyone knows about them and feels welcome to take part. In this neighbourhood, they think of everyone and try to make everyone feel at home and comfortable in the community of the neighbourhood. Every morning the council cleans everything up and it's almost always tidy in the neighbourhood. There are 4 different trams, 2 bus lines and a metro no more than 5 minutes' walk from my house, so it's also well connected. All in all, it's the best neighbourhood for me to live in; I wouldn't actually want to leave, even though I'll have to soon because of family expansion. I really love this neighbourhood and the people.

About 's-Gravendijkwal 91D, Rotterdam
The asking price of €289,500 is 47% below the neighbourhood average of €548,291. However, the floor area of 61 m² is 46% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 112 m². The price per square metre works out at about €4,746, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,124 per m². So it is priced keenly for the area, but the smaller size explains part of the difference.
The home has energy label D. In the neighbourhood, about 20% of homes have a label D or lower, while over 60% have A, B or C. Label D means the home is moderately efficient; heating costs will be higher than in a well-insulated home, but it is not the worst rating.
The neighbourhood is well connected. One resident mentions four different trams, two bus lines and a metro within a five-minute walk. The train station is 1.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk. So you can easily reach other parts of Rotterdam and beyond without a car.
Middelland has a mix of residents, including families with children. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, and playgrounds are mentioned by residents. The neighbourhood also has a square with organised activities and a wijkpaleis that fosters community. However, the average household size is 1.7, and about 24% of households have children, so it is not exclusively family-oriented.
Residents describe the neighbourhood as "very safe and comfortable." The total number of crimes recorded in the area is 1,214, but without context per capita, it is hard to compare. The resident reviews are positive about safety, and the council cleans the streets every morning, keeping it tidy.
There are several supermarkets within a few minutes' walk: SPAR express, Ekoplaza, Albert Heijn and Aldi. Restaurants are just around the corner (0.3 km), and a GP practice is 0.4 km away. A library is 1.6 km away, and a park or square is 0.3 km away. So daily errands are easily done on foot.
The apartment was built in 1896, so it is over 125 years old. In the neighbourhood, 83.7% of homes were built before 1945, so this is typical. Older buildings often have high ceilings and character, but may need more maintenance and have lower energy efficiency. The energy label D reflects that.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not stated either. So it is likely that this apartment does not have private outdoor space, which is common for apartments in this dense urban area.
