Overtoomse Veld-Zuid is a diverse, green part of Amsterdam Nieuw-West. One resident describes it as 'Pretty decent', noting that while the area has a mixed reputation, they almost never feel unsafe and appreciate the greenery and cosy atmosphere. They do mention that the streets can be dirty and the buildings are not particularly attractive. The neighbourhood has a high address density of 5,906 per km², typical of a very strongly urban area. Most homes are flats, and the population is young, with many single-person households. For more on the area, see the Overtoomse Veld-Zuid neighbourhood.
For daily groceries, you have an AH to go just around the corner, a Lidl a couple of streets away, and an Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk. Several schools are on your doorstep, including the Alexander Roozendaalschool and the Comenius Lyceum Amsterdam, both within a few minutes' walk. A train station is a ten-minute walk away, and the metro is also nearby. For more on the wider area, see the municipality of Amsterdam.

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. 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.
