About Copernicusplein 1B, Schiedam
The rent of €682 is slightly above the average for a room in the neighbourhood (€669). Given that this is a self-contained studio of 43 m², the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact, independent home in a central urban area.
Energy label F is the second-lowest rating, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to more efficient homes. The label is an official registration (EP-Online) and doesn't necessarily mean the property is poorly insulated, it could be down to the heating system.

There are several supermarkets within a short walk: Dirk at 444 m, Coop at 454 m, SPAR at 456 m, and Albert Heijn at 515 m. So you have plenty of choice for daily shopping.

How residents experience their district
As a born Schiedammer, I've been living in this neighbourhood for 5 years now. I've never felt any different than I always did. This neighbourhood plays a big role in my life. Old friends and old neighbours who still live there. Lovely to live in a familiar environment. Schiedam has felt familiar for 30 years.

How residents experience their municipality
The parking is really too full, the people are very antisocial. You really get nothing from the neighbours here, they just ignore you and walk on. What is a plus point is that you live close to shops and schools, which is very handy and easily accessible. You really miss the sense of community in the neighbourhood because that used to be the case. There are also many people walking around with dangerous loose dogs like pitbulls that recently bit another dog. That is also dangerous for the residents themselves.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's nice but a lot of rubbish needs to be tidied up again, a show-off who keeps everything to himself and makes sure it stays tidy.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is fun with the windmills, whisper boat, jenever museum. There are fun things to do, come and have a look, Schiedam is nice.
