Ed Pelsterparkbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 126 m² apartment on Erich Salomonstraat sits in the Ed Pelsterparkbuurt, a modern neighbourhood on Amsterdam's IJburg islands. Built in 2008 with energy label A, it's efficient and well-insulated. At €765,000, the price is in line with the market, the neighbourhood average is €775,241, and similar apartments in Amsterdam sell for around €6,002 per m².
The neighbourhood Ed Pelsterparkbuurt is a young, family-oriented area with many couples and children. Based on five reviews, residents appreciate the wide streets and water in summer but note a lack of community mixing. One resident says: "Heavenly wide, not far from the bustling centre, with a good tram connection to Central Station. But other neighbourhoods always require multiple transfers." Another calls it "like home" and gives it 8.88 out of 10. The neighbourhood has a strong urban feel with over 2,000 addresses per km².
For daily shopping, Dekamarkt is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. Schools are close: SBO Het Spectrum vestiging IJburg is on your doorstep, and De Poseidon and Basisschool de Archipel are a couple of streets away. The municipality Amsterdam keeps the streets clean, and a friendly police station adds to the sense of safety.

Heavenly wide, not far from the bustling centre, with a good tram connection to Central Station. But other neighbourhoods always require multiple transfers, even adjacent ones. Connection within the neighbourhood and with other neighbourhoods and the city itself is what I miss most. The water in summer makes up for a lot of that, but winters are very isolated. Although the streets themselves are Dutch-regulated straight-laced grey, nature is all around the streets. I prefer to be there, and people are friendlier there, than on the street itself. Green spaces and human interaction do something to a person. Many cultures live side by side (plus point!), but unfortunately they don't mix to form a new culture. The snack bar around the corner is the best community centre. Just like nature here, really. Everything is arranged side by side, not organically. The neighbourhood is for the orderly, commuting person who longs for their own bubble when they come home. A lot of waste and food is left on the street (also cleaned up by the municipality), which in my view is linked to a lack of community building/neighbourly care, more self-interest and less interest in neighbourhood interactions. The police station in the neighbourhood is very friendly and easily approachable. That gives a pleasant sense of safety.

Auto-translated to English by AIWell my experience is more that there are sometimes conflicts with the neighbours but that mainly concerns the block itself. Sometimes we manage to sort it out but often it's also a few who make decisions, which could always be different in my opinion. Overall it is a safe neighbourhood. Where you can certainly have a laugh. There are lots of playgrounds for children which is very safe.
