I think the Elandsgracht neighbourhood is great, actually the Jordaan too. Lots of familiar faces so everyone is somewhat known to each other. The Jordaan also has a large share of history with names like André Hazes, Willem Holleeder and tante Leen. In short, a nice neighbourhood where a lot happened back in the day and very nice neighbours!
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is really a piece of Amsterdam. Old canals, a bit messy, but cosy. You have those little shops and pubs there, a real mix of everything. By tram you're in the city centre in no time, so that's great. Tourists? Yes, you see them, but it doesn't really bother me. I feel quite safe there, despite the crowds.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's cosy here with many shops and eateries in the neighbourhood. In my opinion, my street is visited too much by loitering youths; my neighbours seem to find that cosy too. Little to no trouble with crime. Good public transport connections.

The asking price is 314% above the neighbourhood average of €905,436, and it's the most expensive of the 55 homes currently for sale in the Elandsgrachtbuurt. However, the 423 m² floor area is 319% larger than the average of 101 m², so the price per square metre (€8,865) is actually below the neighbourhood average of €9,511. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the exceptional size and canal-side location.
