The Staalmanbuurt
Residents describe the Staalmanbuurt warmly. One says: "I think my neighbourhood is so beautiful because it is a place where everything comes together: peace, cosiness, and life." Another calls it "a real family neighbourhood" that is safe and pleasant, with plenty of greenery just beyond the streets. Based on two reviews, the picture is of a place where people look out for each other and children play on the square. The only grumble is that rubbish sometimes lies around on days when it should not be outside. It is a neighbourhood with many families, and the mix of ages gives it a lively but calm feel. The Staalmanbuurt neighbourhood is one of the greener corners of the city.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy from here. The Einsteinschool is just around the corner, and the Brede school Fiep Westendorp is a ten-minute walk, so school runs are short. For groceries, the Lidl and an Albert Heijn are both a couple of streets away, with a Dirk not much further. The train station is 2.3 km away, which is a manageable distance for commuting into the centre. A park or garden is a five-minute walk, and there are restaurants nearby for evenings out. The municipality of Amsterdam offers all the amenities you would expect from a major city.
