Auto-translated to English by AIAmenities very close by, such as shopping centre Alexandrium, public transport is easy to reach, schools are nearby. The only downside is that it could be a bit cleaner and a bit cheerier, like more flowers etc.
Auto-translated to English by AIOosterflank is a nice, varied neighbourhood with beautiful courtyards of owner-occupied homes, luxury apartment complexes, and nice complexes with rental apartments. There is a lot of attention for the elderly, there are some schools, and there is a community centre nearby. One of the largest shopping centres in the Netherlands, Alexandrium, is just around the corner from me. Ideal. Also GP, dentist, and hospital nearby, and plenty of green spaces. Public transport is good; you're always near a bus stop or metro station. Oosterflank does have some crime, it remains Rotterdam, but it's still manageable compared to other districts. I've also lived in Zuid, well, then it's really quiet here. A lot is being renovated now, it's getting more and more beautiful.
