Timorpleinbuurt-Noord, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Bankastraat sits in the lively Timorpleinbuurt-Noord, part of Amsterdam's Indische Buurt.

The neighbourhood is a mix of old and new, with 81% of homes built before 1945. It's densely urban, over 8,000 addresses per km², and mostly flats. One resident sums it up: "I don't think the neighbourhood is extremely special, but I do like the atmosphere and there are nice people living here. I would like to see a bit more greenery, like more flowers and plants. That would make the neighbourhood a bit cosier. Also, there is often litter on the streets, which doesn't look nice and especially not cosy. Other than that, I'm happy with my neighbourhood!" The neighbourhood Timorpleinbuurt-Noord has many single-person households and a young population, with the largest age group being 25 to 45.
Daily shopping is easy: an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Lidl is a five-minute walk away. For school runs, De Indische Buurt School is on your doorstep, and the Bataviaschool is a couple of streets away. Secondary education is within a ten-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers plenty of parks and restaurants nearby, so you're never far from a bite or a bit of green.
At the time of writing the home is listed via La Maison Makelaars & Taxateurs B.V. and also through Funda, so it's available through several channels.
