Auto-translated to English by AIA very unfriendly and unsafe environment for both adults and children. Every month there is a woman/girl raped, people shooting wildly, or a burglary. It is not recommended to go outside after dark. Neighbours don't greet each other and there is always tension between neighbours. Children who tear up flowers/plants. Parents who say nothing about it.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy neighbourhood that's quickly deteriorating, but people still look out for each other. It's a working-class neighbourhood. A shame it's so dirty, etc. But I'm staying. The municipality should deploy more litter pickers, etc., and possibly increase fines for littering.

About Sikkelstraat 22A, Rotterdam
The asking price of €260,000 is 33% below the average asking price in Vreewijk (€387,369) and also below the median of €349,000. Given the 76 m² floor area and energy label G, the price is keen compared to other homes in the neighbourhood, though the poor energy rating means higher monthly costs.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, indicating poor insulation and high energy consumption. You can expect significant heating costs, especially in winter. In Vreewijk, only 10.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this apartment is among the least efficient in the area.
