Middelland, 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 Schietbaanlaan 51B02, Rotterdam
The asking price of €469,000 is below the average sale price in Middelland (€525,860) and close to the median (€450,000). Given the 109 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €4,303, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €5,099 per m². So it appears to be priced keenly relative to other homes in the area.
Energy label C is a mid-range label. It means the home is registered as reasonably efficient, but not top of the line. In Middelland, about 25% of homes have label C, while 43% have A or B. You can expect moderate energy costs, but the exact bills depend on your usage and the heating system.
The neighbourhood is well connected. Residents mention four different tram lines, two bus lines and a metro within a five-minute walk. The nearest train station is 1.9 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. So you can get around Rotterdam easily without a car.
Middelland has a mix of residents, including families with children. There are several primary schools nearby, like the Mariaschool on the Schietbaanlaan itself, and playgrounds. One resident notes that the neighbourhood organises events for everyone and that the council keeps it tidy. However, only about 24% of households have children, so it's not a predominantly family area.
One resident describes the neighbourhood as "very safe and comfortable." The total number of reported crimes in the area is 1,214, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare. The neighbourhood score of 7.79 out of 10 from three reviews suggests residents are generally satisfied with safety.
You have several supermarkets just around the corner: Ekoplaza (322 m), Albert Heijn (335 m) and Dirk (356 m). There's also a SPAR express and an Aldi a bit further. For daily groceries, you're well covered. Restaurants are also close by, with the nearest just 0.3 km away.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not stated either, so it's likely that this apartment does not have private outdoor space.
