Binnenstad-Zuid, Zwolle
NeighbourhoodThis room on Eekwal sits in the middle of Zwolle's historic centre, where the streets are always lively and the canals are just a stroll away. The listing does not state a house number, postcode, 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 €599 per month, the rent is well below the average for rooms in Zwolle, which makes it a keenly priced option in this part of town.
The Binnenstad-Zuid neighbourhood is compact, so many people know each other, and occasionally a neighbourhood day is organised. One resident says: "The area is reasonably safe, but at the weekend people pass through on their way to go out. There is greenery, but there is still room for improvement." They also note that there is no primary school in the neighbourhood, but amenities are extensive because it sits near the shopping street.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
The neighbourhood is not very large, so many people know each other, and occasionally a neighbourhood day is organised. The area is reasonably safe, but at the weekend people pass through on their way to go out. There is greenery, but there is still room for improvement. There is no primary school or similar in the neighbourhood. The amenities are very extensive as the neighbourhood is located near the shopping street. There is a bus stop, so I would say it is easily accessible. Housing in the neighbourhood is not good; there are not many houses for sale, and the houses that are sometimes available to rent have high rental prices. Rents should be lower and more owner-occupied homes.

How residents experience their district
The neighbours are involved and there for each other. There is always something to do, but usually it's also quiet on the street. It remains the city centre, so on nights out or during events it can be a bit noisy, but that, in my opinion, adds charm to the neighbourhood. The streets look incredibly beautiful and it's a very green part of the city.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's getting busier and noisier in the city centre where I live. A lot of nuisance from pub-goers, especially at the weekend. People who don't live here park their cars and bikes in the street. Lots of delivery vans and other traffic that drive into and park on the street. Lots of beeping from cars when they have to reverse back out. It's a dead-end narrow street. I'm seriously considering moving. Out of the city centre at any rate. The neighbours themselves I have little to no trouble with.

Auto-translated to English by AInice place, friendly people. Close to amenities such as shopping centre, gym and education.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice but busy neighbourhood, there are many young children and elderly people living here, which does make the neighbourhood flourish a bit. It's next to a nice and fairly large park where people walk their dogs every day. The violence in the street could be less, though.
