Overtoomse Veld-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on August Allebéplein is part of a 2023 development, so everything is fresh and energy-efficient. The home is in Overtoomse Veld-Zuid, a neighbourhood in Amsterdam Nieuw-West that's greener than its reputation suggests. At €1,228 per month, the rent is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €1,683, which is keen for a new-build with an A+++ label. Compared to other apartments in Amsterdam, this is a market-rate price for the size and quality.
The Overtoomse Veld-Zuid neighbourhood is a mixed area with a lot of diversity. Based on one review, a resident says: "It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad. Yes, every now and then you hear an explosion, which certainly isn't pleasant, but when you walk through the neighbourhood there's also a lot of diversity and I almost never feel unsafe." They also mention the greenery and cosiness, but note that the streets can be dirty. The area is densely populated, with many single-person households and a young population.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and Lidl is just around the corner. There's also an AH to go a ten-minute walk away. For schools, OBS de Toekomst primary school is just 44 metres away, and DENISE secondary school is a couple of streets away. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Amsterdam, so you have all the city's amenities within reach, though for clothes shopping you'd head to the centre.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including KRK Verhuurmakelaars and KRK Makelaars.

I live in Nieuw-West in Amsterdam. It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad. Yes, every now and then you hear an explosion, which certainly isn't pleasant, but when you walk through the neighbourhood there's also a lot of diversity and I almost never feel unsafe (though that doesn't say much as a 1.90m man). Furthermore, it can be very cosy and there's a lot of greenery in the area, which is also very nice. The buildings are ugly, but I can live with that. The street is also very dirty, because apparently nobody cares about nature and the streetscape, so everything gets thrown on the street. In terms of amenities, there's enough, but if I need clothes, for example, I have to go to the city centre, so that's why it's not rated very high but still sufficient. The city centre is (by Amsterdam standards) fortunately not very far to cycle and there's also a train station nearby and the metro goes there too.
