I've lived here for 12 years and we almost never had any problems
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in Rotterdam West my whole life. Since 2013 I've been living in Spangen with my children. We really enjoy living here. I have a nice house with a large garden and I have nice neighbours. What I do find a shame is the amount of litter and rubbish and large groups of youngsters on the playgrounds for the children with scooters and fatbikes who also leave all their rubbish behind and 'chase away' the children. There is a lot to do in the neighbourhood for children and the metro/tram station is within walking distance. There should be more greenery and more facilities for older youth. More bins on the street instead of just waste containers.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a bit of a chaotic neighbourhood but I'm happy with my little house
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived my whole life (45 years) in Rotterdam West and wouldn't want to leave. Personally, I've had no negative experiences in the neighbourhood. Of course, the area was worse in my youth, but even then I had a good time. It's better now, but I do notice that a lot is deteriorating again. In terms of litter on the streets and young people looking for trouble. That's a shame, because it's so nice here. There should be more greenery and more neighbourhood watch, and I think more facilities for young people. Because the neighbourhood and playground work hardly does anything anymore, there's too little for young people aged about 12 to 20 to do, and they end up hanging around and doing silly things out of boredom. A kind of community centre or youth club where they can 'hang out' and do things together could provide a solution. For the younger children, there's plenty to do here, but the mess left by the older youth is not nice. Otherwise, I'm very satisfied here.

About Zoutziedersstraat 56A, Rotterdam
At €159,500, this is the cheapest home for sale in Spangen right now. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €352,444, so this studio is 55% below that. However, it is also much smaller than average (33 m² vs 88 m²) and has an energy label G, which means high heating costs. The price is keen for a compact starter home.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient, so you can expect high energy bills. In Spangen, 40% of homes for sale have label A, and only 13% have label D or lower. This is something to factor into your budget.
Residents give Spangen a 7.25 out of 10. One long-term resident says: 'We almost never had any problems.' Another enjoys the cosy feel but mentions litter and nuisance from youngsters. A third calls it 'a bit chaotic but I'm happy with my little house.' It is a very urban area with good public transport and local shops.
Lidl is 281 metres away, Albert Heijn 355 metres, and Dirk 542 metres. For primary schools, Mariaschool Taandersplein is 213 metres away and De Korf Montessori is 256 metres. There are also several other schools within walking distance.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away. That is about a 30-minute walk or a short bus ride. The neighbourhood does have tram and metro stops within walking distance, as noted by residents.
At €159,500, it is one of the most affordable homes in Rotterdam. The low price makes it accessible, but the small size (33 m²) and poor energy label (G) mean higher running costs. It is a no-frills starter home in a lively, urban neighbourhood.
