Tarwewijk, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis listing is for a room on the Dordtselaan in Rotterdam, but it does not state a house number, floor area, year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the room itself. At €550 a month, the rent is 57% below the neighbourhood average for a room (€802), which is keen, though without the floor area it is hard to say exactly how good value it is. For context, there are currently 6 rental properties available in the Tarwewijk, and you can see more rooms in Rotterdam on Buurtje.
The Tarwewijk is a diverse neighbourhood with a mix of cultures and a strong sense of community. One resident says: "The 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." Another notes: "Good, quiet, but the municipality could pay a bit more attention, like containers with an awful lot of mess. Green areas could certainly be better, and clean up the containers." Based on five reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 6.83 out of 10. The area is densely populated with many young adults and single-person households. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Tarwewijk.
For daily groceries, you have an Albert Heijn just around the corner, a Dirk a couple of streets away, and a Lidl a five-minute walk. There are several primary schools nearby: CBS De Akker is on your doorstep, Theresiaschool is a couple of streets away, and CBS Elout van Soeterwoude is a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood is very urban, with a high density of addresses, so everything you need is close by. For more on the wider area, check the municipality Rotterdam.

Auto-translated to English by AIyou can do all sorts of things there, shop and walk your dog. it can be busy at night but during the day it's usually quiet. i'm happy to live here. pollution is quite a problem, especially around overflowing bins where seagulls get at them. it would be nice if the council took more account of that.

Auto-translated to English by AIDe Tarwewijk is a nice neighbourhood where people from all backgrounds live together. As a woman, I feel reasonably safe there and I love trying restaurants with food from different countries. The downside is the dirt. There is a lot of litter and bins are often overflowing.
