Good, it's a large neighbourhood where we can find everything, everything is close by
Auto-translated to English by AIMulticultural neighbourhood, lots of shops, very diverse, nice walking environment. Close to public transport. Lots of greenery in the area, near a large park. I don't feel unsafe in the neighbourhood, but I wouldn't go for a walk in the middle of the night. Otherwise a pleasant neighbourhood.

About Tholenstraat 132, Rotterdam
The asking price is 39% below the neighbourhood average of €354,217, but the flat is also 28% smaller than the average home in Pendrecht (63 m² vs 87 m²). Given the energy label F and the 1960 build year, the price is in line with the market for a compact apartment needing some energy upgrades.
The energy label is F, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. Heating costs are likely to be higher than in a modern home. Most homes in Pendrecht (43%) have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
Pendrecht has plenty of shops within walking distance. Aldi is 215 metres away, Albert Heijn is 247 metres, and Dirk is 345 metres. Residents mention that everything is close by, so daily errands are convenient.
Two primary schools are within a five-minute walk: Basisschool over De Slinge (205 m) and Beatrixschool (267 m). Kindcentrum De Hoeksteen is 510 metres away. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.4 km away.
One resident says they don't feel unsafe but wouldn't walk in the middle of the night. The neighbourhood recorded 699 total crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for a densely populated urban area.
