Elzenhagen-Noord is a relatively new neighbourhood with a mix of families and young professionals. Based on two reviews, opinions are mixed. One resident says: "The neighbourhood is easily accessible from the motorway if you come from northern cities, for example. Nice new houses, the neighbourhood is kept clean. Trees and plants along the road make it a great place for a walk. As a woman, I still feel reasonably safe here late at night. Station Noord is very close, which is convenient for daily transport." Another resident feels less positive: "I just feel like an outsider in the neighbourhood, everyone drives around in big fancy cars and we don't even have a car. People aren't open to a chat and I'm regularly looked at as if I'm not right in the head." The area has a high address density (3,107 per km²), typical of a strongly urban setting. Most homes are owner-occupied (39%), and the neighbourhood has a young population, with 36% aged 25-45. For more details, see the Elzenhagen-Noord neighbourhood.
For your morning bread run, an AH to go is just around the corner, and a Jumbo and Lidl are a five-minute walk away. Primary school abbs Elzenhagen is a couple of streets away, and secondary school Bredero is on your doorstep. A park or public garden is also just around the corner, perfect for a stroll. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Amsterdam, which means you have access to all city amenities, though the immediate area feels green and quiet.

I just feel like an outsider in the neighbourhood, everyone drives around in big fancy cars and we don't even have a car. People aren't open to a chat and I'm regularly looked at as if I'm not right in the head. Sometimes neighbourhood events are organised but I never want to come because I find the people bloody annoying.
