Overtoomse Veld-Zuid has a reputation that's partly justified, partly not. One resident says: "I live in Nieuw-West in Amsterdam. It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad. Yes, every now and then you hear an explosion, which certainly isn't pleasant, but when you walk through the neighbourhood there's also a lot of diversity and I almost never feel unsafe (though that doesn't say much as a 1.90m man). Furthermore, it can be very cosy and there's a lot of greenery in the area, which is also very nice. The buildings are ugly, but I can live with that. The street is also very dirty, because apparently nobody cares about nature and the streetscape, so everything gets thrown on the street." The neighbourhood has a very high density (5,906 addresses per km²) and a young population, with many singles and few families. For more details, check out the neighbourhood Overtoomse Veld-Zuid.
For your daily shopping, an AH to go is on your doorstep, a Lidl and Albert Heijn are just around the corner, and a Dirk is a ten-minute walk away. There are several schools nearby, including the Comenius Lyceum (a secondary school) a couple of streets away. The area has plenty of green space, with a park or garden just around the corner. The municipality Amsterdam offers a wide range of amenities, though for clothes shopping you'd head to the city centre.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Van der Linden.

I live in Nieuw-West in Amsterdam. It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad. Yes, every now and then you hear an explosion, which certainly isn't pleasant, but when you walk through the neighbourhood there's also a lot of diversity and I almost never feel unsafe (though that doesn't say much as a 1.90m man).

The street is also very dirty, because apparently nobody cares about nature and the streetscape, so everything gets thrown on the street. In terms of amenities, there's enough, but if I need clothes, for example, I have to go to the city centre, so that's why it's not rated very high but still sufficient. The city centre is (by Amsterdam standards) fortunately not very far to cycle and there's also a train station nearby and the metro goes there too.
