Zuidwijk, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis listing is for a room on Emelenkamp in Rotterdam-Zuidwijk. The listing 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 €650 a month, the rent is 45% below the neighbourhood average for rental properties, which is in line with what you'd expect for a room rather than a whole home. For more context, see other rooms in Rotterdam.
Zuidwijk is a densely populated neighbourhood in Rotterdam-Charlois, with over 13,800 residents. It's a very urban area, with a mix of families and singles. One resident describes it as "Quiet" and rates it 7.88 out of 10. Another says: "Nice house, not such a nice neighbourhood" (7.13). A third review is more critical: "Dirty, full of shady types and homeless people who aggressively ask for money. There are plenty of supermarkets, but otherwise only one chemist, Kruidvat. And a few food shops, but almost all of them close early. As for other types of shops, Zuidplein is the nearest option, the neighbourhood doesn't have any. Accessibility is also substandard. Only one bus line runs through the neighbourhood, which is always packed. All in all, an unpleasant neighbourhood. Unpleasant people. Unpleasant surroundings. Unpleasant accessibility. Unpleasant amenities." These are based on four reviews. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Zuidwijk.
For daily groceries, PLUS is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. There are also a Dirk and a SPAR express within walking distance. For schools, Basisschool Christophoor is on your doorstep, and Het Praktijkcollege Zuidwijk is a couple of streets away. The neighbourhood has a park or public garden just around the corner, and a GP and restaurant are also within a five-minute walk. For more on the wider area, see the municipality Rotterdam.
At the time of writing the room is listed only via Direct Wonen.

About Emelenkamp, Rotterdam
At €650, the rent is 45% below the average rental price in Zuidwijk (€1,188). That makes sense because this is a room, not a whole home. The average rent for a room in the neighbourhood is €601, so €650 is slightly above that, but still competitive for a room in Rotterdam.
Rental properties in Zuidwijk are rented out in an average of 19 days, which indicates a fairly active market. For rooms specifically, the data doesn't give a separate figure, but the overall speed suggests you shouldn't wait too long if you're interested.
Zuidwijk is a very urban neighbourhood with a high density of addresses. It has a mix of families and singles, and about 25% of homes are single-family houses. Resident reviews are mixed: some find it quiet, others mention issues with cleanliness and safety. Amenities are limited to supermarkets and a few shops; for more variety, Zuidplein is nearby.
PLUS is just around the corner (238 m), and Albert Heijn is about a ten-minute walk away (721 m). There are also a SPAR express (764 m) and a Dirk (930 m) within walking distance, so daily shopping is well covered.
Basisschool Christophoor is very close, just 139 m away. For secondary education, Het Praktijkcollege Zuidwijk is 369 m away, and Vak College Zuidrand is 528 m. So schools are within easy walking distance.
The nearest train station is 3.6 km away, so it's not within walking distance. One resident notes that only one bus line runs through the neighbourhood and it's often crowded. For better connections, you might need to cycle or take a bus to a larger hub.
