The Overhoeks neighbourhood
Overhoeks is a calm, safe pocket of the city, according to the three residents who reviewed it. One resident says: "It's a very nice neighbourhood, just a shame that the nearest supermarket is so small and therefore doesn't have everything." Another adds: "In my opinion, Overhoeks is a beautiful, quiet neighbourhood. It's convenient that you can be in the heart of Amsterdam within 10 minutes without having to deal with the hustle and bustle of the centre." The area is mostly young adults, with over half of residents aged 25 to 45, and a mix of single-person and childless households. The Overhoeks neighbourhood has a distinctly urban feel, with a high address density.
Life on the street
For daily shopping, the nearest Albert Heijn is just around the corner, though residents note it is small and you may need to cycle further for a bigger store. The Hyperion Lyceum secondary school is on your doorstep, while IKC Overhoeks primary school is a couple of streets away. A park or green space is also just around the corner, and there are restaurants within a short walk. The municipality of Amsterdam offers plenty beyond the immediate area, with the city centre reachable in about ten minutes.
