The Louis Couperusbuurt is a leafy pocket of Slotermeer-Zuidoost, with trees in courtyards and a calm, safe feel. Based on two reviews, residents appreciate the green surroundings and the mix of cultures, though opinions vary. One resident says: "A beautiful nature area with trees in courtyards close to the city. A safe area where incidents are avoided, a neighbourhood that is healthy and cheap to live in for starters. Lots of green, peace and environmentally friendly for singles. You can park your car in front of the door. The residents are from different cultures, many young people. It gives peace and enjoyment." Another is less positive: "The neighbourhood coaches do nothing, the parents do nothing. Children are rude." The area is densely populated (over 4,900 addresses per km²) and home to many singles and young adults. For more on the area, visit the neighbourhood Louis Couperusbuurt.
Your morning bread run is a ten-minute walk to the Albert Heijn on Burgemeester Röellstraat, with a Dekamarkt and Dirk also within easy reach.

A park or public garden is a five-minute stroll away, and a restaurant is on your doorstep. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's amenities, though the nearest train station is a 3 km drive.

About Burgemeester Röellstraat 30-3, Amsterdam
At €300,000, this flat is the cheapest of the five homes currently for sale in the Louis Couperusbuurt and sits 31% below the neighbourhood's average asking price of €437,600. The average price per m² in the area is €6,194, while this flat works out at about €5,172 per m². Given the 58 m² size and E energy label, the price is keen for Amsterdam, though you'll need to budget for higher energy costs.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 83.3% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is typical for the area. The flat was built in 1962, and none of the homes in the buurt have labels A or B.
The Louis Couperusbuurt is described by one resident as a safe, green area with a mix of cultures and many young people. Another resident is less positive, mentioning issues with children's behaviour. The neighbourhood has 150 reported crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for a densely populated urban area. Overall, it's a quiet, leafy pocket close to the city.
There are several schools within walking distance. The MUNDUS College Amsterdam (secondary) is about 235 metres away, and Spring High (secondary) is 391 metres.

The nearest train station is 3 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the area is very densely urbanised (over 4,900 addresses per km²), so bus and tram stops are likely nearby.
The neighbourhood has many singles (810 one-person households) and young adults (895 aged 25-45). Only 10% of homes are owner-occupied, and the average household size is 1.8. It's a popular area for starters and those looking for affordable housing in Amsterdam.
