And a lot of rubbish thrown on the ground. Constant arguments." A third review mentions a squatter's pro-Palestine building on Tussenmeer 85, with Palestine flags and hate texts, and wishes for more Dutch shops. The neighbourhood scores 6.58 out of 10 overall.

Hardly any Dutch shops... mostly Muslim. On Tussenmeer 85 there is a squatter's pro-Palestine building... while everything is being done in the neighbourhood to make it nice. The building is full of Palestine flags and hate texts. We want more Dutch shops... For the rest... nice area for walking and cycling. The city is accessible from all sides and everything is well reachable. All shops are present.
Auto-translated to English by AIAdequate/average (not bad, but not fantastic either. Just normal), it's not the best, but no neighbourhood is; things can always change/improve. Plenty of educational opportunities, supermarkets like Albert Heijn and Jumbo, a bit further (15 minutes walk) there's also the centre with all sorts of other amenities such as shops, supermarkets, ice cream shops, restaurants, etc. Many playgrounds, so really family-friendly. However, I must admit that there is little parking space, possibly due to these amenities. Hygiene could also be better; there is often some rubbish on the ground that doesn't belong there, like cans etc. Housing: there are many homes and houses in the neighbourhood, also with private and shared garages, so really great.

Auto-translated to English by AIVaried. I can't describe it with one word because in some areas it differs greatly from another. One aspect is simply a bit less good, for example there is very little parking space. Other areas are really great, everything is nearby, much is within walking distance, think schools, supermarkets, city centre, restaurants etc. That there is little greenery is not surprising when you live in a neighbourhood. Hygiene could also be better in my opinion, there are many things always on the street while there is a bin just 1 metre away.

About Klaas Katerstraat 92, Amsterdam
The rent is 30% above the neighbourhood average of €2,036, so it's on the high side. However, the apartment is 76 m² with energy label A and was built in 2003, which may justify the premium. Comparable rentals in the area average €24.93 per m², so this one works out to about €34.87 per m².
Rental properties in Zuidwestkwadrant-Zuid are typically let within 17 days on average, which suggests a fairly active market. With only 4 rentals currently available, competition could be noticeable.
The neighbourhood has many playgrounds and is described as family-friendly by some residents. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including De Odyssee and Basisschool de Wereldburger. However, reviews mention litter and occasional disturbances, so it's a mixed picture.
Albert Heijn is 295 metres away, just a couple of minutes' walk. Jumbo is 666 metres away, about a ten-minute walk. Lidl, Vomar and Dirk are also within a kilometre.
The nearest train station is 4 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, Amsterdam's bus and tram network serves the area, and the city centre is accessible from all sides, as one resident notes.
One resident mentions that parking space is limited, possibly due to the amenities. There are some private and shared garages in the neighbourhood, but street parking may be tight.
The apartment has energy label A, which is very efficient. This means low heating costs and good insulation, typical for a home built in 2003.
