I live in a noisy house myself and have a lot of noise from the neighbours. Which is why I'm looking for another house. But apart from that, it's a nice neighbourhood here. With many nationalities living together in one neighbourhood. There are many activities for all ages. And there are many educational locations in my neighbourhood. But in my flat, there are also people who unfortunately just throw rubbish down from their window. As a result, there are food scraps behind the houses near the storage units and on the roof of the storage units.

About Van Cittersstraat 43B01, Rotterdam
The asking price is 51% below the neighbourhood average of €514,034, but the flat is also 45% smaller than the average home in Nieuwe Westen. Given the compact 61 m² and energy label E, the price is keen compared to other listings in the area. However, the final value depends on what similar flats in the street have sold for recently.
The energy label is E, which is less efficient than most homes for sale in Nieuwe Westen, over 50% of the local stock has label A or B. With label E, you can expect higher heating costs compared to a better-rated home. The building dates from 1924, so insulation may be limited.
Residents give mixed views. One says it feels safe during the day but less so in the evening, mentioning 'many asylum seekers who spoil things'. Another notes litter and noise from neighbours. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 1,224, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare directly.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, so you'd need a bus or bike to reach it.
