Auto-translated to English by AIOud IJsselmonde is a green neighbourhood with many elderly residents. People are friendly and helpful. It's not really safe here, for example Park de Twee Heuvelen is not lit at all and many strange people walk around. There is a lot of litter in the area and municipal bins are rarely cleaned, which means quite a lot of pests are roaming around.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt can best be described as multicultural, where most people seem to keep to themselves. If you strike up a conversation, they are surprised. The sense of community could be much better, but they are working hard on that. I quite enjoy it here. In terms of safety, I often see police patrolling, two shopping centres within walking distance, bus and tram right outside. Hygiene leaves something to be desired, especially rubbish dumped on the street. The greenery is left wild, supposedly for the insects, but it's just pure cost-cutting on green maintenance.

About Van Wijngaardenlaan 98, Rotterdam
The asking price of €225,000 is 36% below the average asking price in Groot IJsselmonde (€350,608) and also below the median of €277,250. However, the apartment is smaller than average (66 m² vs 96 m²) and has an F energy label, which means higher energy costs. Given these factors, the price is keen but reflects the home's condition and size.
Energy label F is one of the least efficient ratings. You can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a more modern home. In the neighbourhood, about 49% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it's something to budget for.
Very convenient. SPAR express is just around the corner (310 m), and Dirk and Albert Heijn are about a five-minute walk away (719 m and 781 m). There's also a Jumbo nearby. So you have plenty of options for groceries without needing a car.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. Meester Baars is about 533 m away, and Prinses Margrietschool is 653 m. For secondary education, Dalton Rotterdam Palmentuin is 671 m away. There's also a special education school, Auris Taalfontein, at 258 m.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a 10-minute cycle. The area is well served by buses too, so you have good public transport connections.
