Zuidas-Noord, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis bright apartment on Fred. Roeskestraat sits in the lively Zuidas-Noord area of Amsterdam, a stone's throw from the buzz of the city. With 113 m² of living space, it's a generous home for a couple or a small family. The rent of €3,500 is well above the neighbourhood average of €1,868, so you're paying a premium for the size and the modern build. For context, apartments in Amsterdam in this area typically go for less, but this one stands out with its space and contemporary finish.
Zuidas-Noord is a compact, urban pocket with a mix of residents, from young professionals to families. The area is known for its high-rise offices and sleek architecture, but it also has a quieter side with green spaces nearby. One resident says: "It's a great place to live if you work in the area, everything is close by." Another adds: "The neighbourhood is safe and well-connected, though it can feel a bit busy at times." Based on two reviews, it's a place that suits those who like the energy of the city but want a home base that feels secure. The Zuidas-Noord neighbourhood is a small community, with a high proportion of single-person households and a young demographic.
Daily life here is convenient. For groceries, you have Albert Heijn just around the corner, and an Ekoplaza a couple of streets away for organic options.

For families, there are several schools nearby, including the Geert Groote School and the Olympiaschool, both within a short stroll. The Geert Groote College for secondary education is also just around the corner.

About Fred. Roeskestraat 92C12, Amsterdam
The rent is significantly higher than the neighbourhood average of €1,868, but this apartment is also much larger than the average (113 m² versus 78 m²). The price per square metre comes to about €31, which is above the neighbourhood average of €23.98. Whether it's worth it depends on how much you value the extra space and the modern, energy-efficient build.
The energy label is A, which is the most efficient label. This means the home is very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively low energy costs. The label is an official registration, so it's a reliable indicator of the home's energy performance.
The nearest train station is about 1 km away, which is roughly a 12-minute walk. This makes it easy to get around the city and beyond, especially if you work in the Zuidas business district or need to travel further afield.

How residents experience their municipality
IJburg is a new district still under development and it's getting better with all the amenities and a beach nearby. And you're also quickly out of the city and into the greenery.

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Auto-translated to English by AINice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice quiet neighbourhood on the edge of the city but still close to many good amenities that a city has to offer. The neighbourhood is still becoming more beautiful.
