Oud IJsselmonde, Rotterdam
This two-bedroom apartment on Zuiddiepje sits in a leafy part of Rotterdam, where the streets are calm and the neighbours know each other. At €1,500 per month, the rent is 25% below the neighbourhood average of €1,999, which makes it a keenly priced option for the area. For context, apartments in Rotterdam typically go for more, so this one stands out.
One resident, who has lived here for ten years, describes it as a close-knit, safe neighbourhood, great for families. They mention that public transport connects to both Kralingse Zoom (bus) and Centraal (tram), and amenities are a five-minute bike ride away. The neighbourhood feels safe for a family with two girls who grew up here, and there are annual neighbourhood barbecues, Halloween, Christmas, and New Year's celebrations. It's quiet and not noisy, with no litter on the streets and many trees. The resident adds that Oud IJsselmonde is like a little island in that respect, and while there's no big park, crossing the bridge takes you to the Kralingse Plas. This is based on a single review, but it paints a warm picture of the Oud IJsselmonde neighbourhood.
For daily errands, the SPAR express is just around the corner, and a Dirk is a couple of streets away. Albert Heijn and Jumbo are both about a ten-minute walk, so you have plenty of choice for groceries.

The nearest secondary school, Dalton Rotterdam Palmentuin, is also within walking distance. The area is well served by the municipality of Rotterdam, with a park or garden just a few minutes away.

About Zuiddiepje 48, Rotterdam
The rent is 25% below the neighbourhood average of €1,999, which makes it a keenly priced option. The floor area of 64 m² is smaller than the average of 102 m² in the area, so the price per square metre is relatively high. Overall, it's in line with what you'd expect for a smaller apartment in this part of Rotterdam.
The energy label is C, which is an official registration from EP-Online. It indicates the energy performance of the home, but it doesn't tell you about the condition of the building itself. With label C, you can expect moderate energy costs, but the actual costs depend on your usage and the current energy prices.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
We've lived here for ten years and have always enjoyed it. Public transport connects to both Kralingse Zoom (bus) and Centraal (tram), and amenities are a five-minute bike ride away. The neighbourhood feels safe for a family with two girls who grew up here / came home late, etc. Also during their student days, coming and going from the city. There are annual neighbourhood barbecues, Halloween, Christmas, New Year's, etc. If there's something to celebrate or someone is having a tough time, you notice the neighbourhood is there for you; there's always a card in the mailbox. Furthermore, it's quiet and not noisy, lovely to sit in the garden. You don't notice that you live in 'Zuid' as it's known. Oud IJsselmonde is like a little island in that respect. There's no litter on our street and there are many trees. Unfortunately, no big park, but cross the bridge and you're at the Kralingse Plas. I would recommend our area to anyone!

I've lived here for a few years. There's litter on the ground. But the supermarkets are good in the neighbourhood and there's a community centre. Nice!

Auto-translated to English by AIIf necessary, people help each other. It's a village in a big city. If necessary, people do grocery shopping for each other.
Auto-translated to English by AIGood living in this neighbourhood due to many shops, good neighbours and good accessibility. Too bad that parking has become paid.
Auto-translated to English by AII think that neighbourhood is completely quiet
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.

Het is net een klein dorpje, je kunt overal fijn heen fietsen of lopen. Er is ook openbaar vervoer wat het nog makkelijker maakt om ergens heen te gaan. Niet al te ver van het centrum af.

Auto-translated to English by AIA very nice neighbourhood. The airport is nearby, but you don't hear a thing. Zestienhovenpark is great for walking or jogging. Many families with children live here. There is a lot of greenery and you see many birds. The best neighbourhood

Auto-translated to English by AIWell, I was born here so I grew up with the neighbourhood as it is now.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is improving more and more each year. Thanks to the rent law, there are fewer slumlords and more and more families. It sometimes still has a bad reputation, but that is undeserved except for a few streets. The location is fantastic, metro, Zuidplein, city centre a quarter of an hour by bike. Zuiderpark is also around the corner and soon the Nelson Mandela park.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe facilities and the apartment itself are nice. But around the building there is a lot of rubbish on the street and junkies.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is and remains a village
