Living in Stadsdeelpark, Capelle aan den IJssel

Stadsdeelpark is not an average Capelle residential neighbourhood. The name says it all: the neighbourhood is built around and near the Schollevaartpark, one of the greener spots in this part of the municipality. The homes are predominantly spacious single-family homes and detached houses, largely built in the 1980s and 1990s. The streets are wide, there is plenty of greenery in the public space, and the building density is relatively low. Anyone looking for a home to buy here is consciously choosing peace and space.

The neighbourhood has around 655 residents, the largest group of whom is between 45 and 65 years old. That colours the street scene: it is generally quiet during the day, there are few schoolchildren on the street, and the neighbourhood has a stable, established character. 57% of households are married, and most families no longer have children living at home. The average income of €44,700 per household is noticeably higher than the municipal average of €37,400.

One resident describes it as follows: "You live here quietly, with enough greenery around you, but Rotterdam is still so close. That is exactly the combination I was looking for."
