Everyone feels at home and you can go anywhere.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for about four years now and I think it's a nice area to live in. Actually, everything you need is in the neighbourhood: supermarkets, restaurants, coffee shops, train and tram station. A bit more green would certainly be an addition, and it's also a shame that the metro is a bit of a bike ride away. Lately, I do notice more litter on the streets and more confused/addicted people on the streets, which gives a less safe feeling. I don't get harassed very often myself, but I wouldn't let children play/walk around here alone. In terms of green space, I would appreciate a nice park like in Blijdorp, but if extra trees are planted next to the busy roads, I think that would already help a lot.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe Listkwartier is a beautiful part of Rotterdam North, where most streets were not bombed. Gorgeous streets and houses, and the neighbourhood is truly up-and-coming. Lots of new hip spots, cosy eateries and good restaurants. In terms of safety, it's improving rapidly. Every now and then (too) fast-driving antisocial cars, but safety is getting better and better.
