This neighbourhood is a mix of all nationalities and very popular, and not to mention we live close to the Rotte
Auto-translated to English by AIWe've been living in this neighbourhood for 4 years now and it's fine, and people are there for each other with help when needed, people still greet each other here and everyone knows each other, only the hygiene could be better
Auto-translated to English by AIThe house is fine but people throw all sorts of things on the street, especially food, and I've been living in a construction pit for over 2 years.
Auto-translated to English by AII find the neighbourhood rather one-sided in terms of residents
Auto-translated to English by AIIn this neighbourhood you'll find cosy pubs, sports clubs, schools, an abundance of shops, a choice of almost every supermarket (except Jumbo). In the last few years, more and more students have come to live in and around the Zwart Janstraat (shopping street). That creates a lively atmosphere and occasionally some noise from parties, but I certainly don't mind it. It's a mix of various ethnicities, everyone is helpful and greets each other. A few years ago, the neighbourhood was really a mess, it seems to have improved a bit now, but you can't call it clean. The Zwart Janstraat was a Formula 1 circuit, but the municipality put a stop to that with extremely high thresholds and confusing one-way streets. Occasionally, some cars still race through the side streets with an enormous racket. I wouldn't let children play outside alone quickly, especially after dusk. There are sometimes unpredictable (sometimes addicted) individuals roaming around, especially past the Noordsingel around those small sports fields. My bike was stolen last year when I wasn't looking. Likewise, some other, more valuable belongings of residents. So watch your belongings. Crooswijk borders the Oude Noorden; this neighbourhood is often in the news in mid-2023 with bomb threats. I haven't seen or heard this kind of crime here, so I can't confirm that. All in all, a vibrant neighbourhood where you won't get bored with everything you need nearby. But with a slight ghetto feel (3 out of 10), that's how I would describe it to give you an idea ;).

About Bergweg 70, Rotterdam
The asking price of €780,000 is 59% above the neighbourhood average of €489,875. Given the 109 m² floor area and the G energy label, the price is on the high side compared to other homes in Oude Noorden. The plot of 220 m² is generous, which partly explains the premium.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating costs. In the neighbourhood, only 24.2% of homes have a label D or lower, so this house performs worse than most of the local housing stock.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle.
Oude Noorden has a mix of residents, with many single-person households and a relatively young population. There are several primary schools within walking distance, such as De Fontein at 82 metres and Hildegardis at 275 metres. Some residents note a strong community spirit, but street hygiene is a point of criticism.
In the past year, sold homes in Oude Noorden were on the market for an average of 54 days. This is a moderate pace, indicating a balanced market without extreme urgency.
The nearest park or public garden is 0.8 km away, about a ten-minute walk. Given the dense urban character of the neighbourhood, green space is limited but accessible.
The listing does not provide details on the interior condition or recent renovations. The year of construction is 1895, so the home likely has original features but may require updates, especially given the poor energy label.
