At €1,150 per month, the rent sits well below the neighbourhood average, which makes it a keen option when you look at apartments in Rotterdam.
The Cool neighbourhood
Cool is a dense, urban pocket of the city centre, where most households are single people and the average age skews young. The neighbourhood scores a modest 6.25 out of 10 across four reviews, and the feedback is mixed. One resident simply says: "I am looking for a home." Another is blunter: "A lot of vagrants. Police are quick to respond, but it's a shame it's necessary." It is a lively, central area with a real city pulse, but not without its rough edges.
