Transvaalbuurt-West is a dense, urban area with a mix of cultures and ages. The neighbourhood has a high address density (8,366 per km²), so it's busy and lively. Based on three reviews, opinions are mixed. One resident says: "I have lived in the Transvaalbuurt for 79 years. Over those years I have seen many changes, but I still live there with great pleasure! And I will continue to do so until the very end! Transvaal is my life!" Another resident is less positive: "People are not okay, they talk too much about you with lies, attack you without reason and believe what other people say about you without asking what your story is." So it's a neighbourhood with strong character, but not for everyone. For more details, see the Transvaalbuurt-West neighbourhood.
Daily shopping is easy: an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Vomar and Lidl are a couple of streets away. For families, there are several primary schools within walking distance, including Integraal Kindcentrum De Kaap (a five-minute walk) and IBS De Vijgenboom (just around the corner).

About Krugerstraat 21A, Amsterdam
The asking price of €695,000 is 34% above the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which is €519,586. However, this apartment is a pre-war property in a sought-after area of Amsterdam, and prices per square metre vary. The neighbourhood average price per m² is €9,282, so at 50 m², the price per m² here is €13,900, which is above average. Whether it's fair depends on your budget and how much you value the location and character.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. It means the home has reasonable insulation but is not as efficient as modern builds. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it's worth noting that 36.7% of homes in the neighbourhood have a label C, and another 36.7% have a label D or lower, so this is typical for the area.
The neighbourhood has a mix of households: about 27% are families with children, and 61% are single-person households. There are several primary schools within walking distance, like Integraal Kindcentrum De Kaap (156 m) and IBS De Vijgenboom (231 m). Secondary schools are also nearby. However, the area is very urban with high density, so it's lively and busy, which some families may love and others may find too hectic.
The train station is 1 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The area is well connected for getting around Amsterdam.
The neighbourhood recorded 187 total crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for a dense urban area. Resident reviews are mixed: one long-term resident loves it, while another reports issues with neighbours.
Homes that sold in the neighbourhood were on the market for an average of 36 days. This suggests a relatively active market, but not exceptionally fast. The number of homes sold (117) compared to those available (29) indicates steady demand.
The nearest park or public garden is 0.7 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is very urban, so green space is limited but accessible. For more extensive recreation, you'd need to travel further.
