I live in a noisy house myself and have a lot of noise from the neighbours. Which is why I'm looking for another house. But apart from that, it's a nice neighbourhood here. With many nationalities living together in one neighbourhood. There are many activities for all ages. And there are many educational locations in my neighbourhood. But in my flat, there are also people who unfortunately just throw rubbish down from their window. As a result, there are food scraps behind the houses near the storage units and on the roof of the storage units.

About Samuel Mullerplein 15D, Rotterdam
At €150,000, this studio is the cheapest home currently for sale in Nieuwe Westen and 71% below the neighbourhood's average asking price of €514,034. However, it's also much smaller than average at 26 m². Given the low price point and compact size, it's a keen entry into the Rotterdam market.
The energy label is F, which is poor. In a neighbourhood where most homes for sale have better labels (only 19.7% are D or lower), you can expect high heating costs. The home was built in 1925, so it likely lacks modern insulation.
Residents give mixed views. One says it's safe during the day but less so in the evening, mentioning 'many asylum seekers walk around, who spoil things.' Another reports noise from neighbours and littering. The area recorded 1,224 total crimes, but no breakdown is available.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, so it's not within walking distance.
Yes, there are several schools within walking distance. CBS Mozaiek primary school is just 110 m away, and the Valentijnschool is 286 m. For secondary education, MEX010 is 125 m away. A child daycare centre is also just 0.3 km from the home.
Given the compact size (26 m²) and low price, this studio is likely aimed at first-time buyers or investors looking for a low-cost entry into Rotterdam. The neighbourhood has many single-person households (5,215 out of 10,075 households) and a young population (average age around 35).
