Kolenkitbuurt-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 74 m² apartment on the Ernest Staesstraat is a well-maintained home with an A energy label, meaning low heating costs. Built in 1952, it sits in a neighbourhood that has seen a lot of renewal. At €675,000, it's the priciest of the nine homes currently for sale in the area and 23% above the average asking price of €546,611, so it's on the high side, but the energy efficiency and size help explain that. For context, you can compare it with other apartments in Amsterdam.
The Kolenkitbuurt-Zuid is a densely built area (6,390 addresses per km²) with a very strong urban feel. Most homes are flats, and three-quarters have an A energy label. The population is diverse: many young adults (25-45) and a fair number of families. Based on three reviews, residents have mixed feelings. One says: "My experience is that I am safe and have good neighbours." Another notes: "My neighbourhood doesn't work well together" and mentions litter. A third appreciates the accessibility and safety but misses green space. The neighbourhood Kolenkitbuurt-Zuid has its challenges, but also a strong sense of community for some.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn and Dirk are both just around the corner, and a Lidl is a couple of streets away. The Bos en Lommerschool (primary) is a five-minute walk, and there are several other primaries within easy reach. For secondary education, Spring High is about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's amenities, with a train station 2.8 km away and plenty of restaurants and parks nearby.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including Makelaars van Amsterdam, Vastgoed Nederland, and Funda.

My experience is good
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience is: that the people don't get along with each other, don't want to make an effort for each other and don't know how to keep your neighbourhood clean and that is the problem of my neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AII really like living in Bos en Lommer, it's easily accessible and close to the centre and my school. I never really feel unsafe, even at night, and there's plenty to do. The only thing I regret is that there isn't much nature in the neighbourhood; I wouldn't quickly go for a nice walk, which I did in Friesland. Also, it's not always very clean, there's a lot of litter on the ground.
