Aalsmeerwegbuurt-West, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis rental home sits on a leafy street in the Aalsmeerwegbuurt-West neighbourhood, part of Amsterdam's popular Hoofddorppleinbuurt. The listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At 52 m², the apartment is 32% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 76 m², and the rent of €2,750 is in line with the median for the area. Compared to other apartments in Amsterdam, this is a typical price for a two-room flat in this part of town.
The Aalsmeerwegbuurt-West neighbourhood is a densely built area with a very strong urban character (address density of 6,865 per km²). Most homes are apartments, and the population skews young: over half of residents are between 25 and 45. Many live alone (795 single-person households), and there are relatively few families with children (250). The neighbourhood feels calm despite its central location, with a park or public garden just a five-minute walk away. No resident reviews are available for this area, so the picture comes entirely from census data.
For your morning bread and groceries, an Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and a Dirk is just around the corner. Several primary schools are within a ten-minute walk, including Oecumenische basisschool Nautilus and Cultuurprofielschool De Notenkraker. Secondary education is even closer: the Tobiasschool VMBO is just a couple of streets away. The neighbourhood falls under the municipality of Amsterdam, which means you have the city's full range of cultural venues, restaurants and public transport at your fingertips.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including VVA Amsterdam, HB Makelaardij, Pararius, Funda and Vastgoed Nederland. The agent has not published an energy label, so that detail is missing from the listing.
