Two-thirds of the homes are single-family houses, and only 20% are owner-occupied, meaning most people rent. The area has a strong urban feel (address density 2,220 per km²) but with plenty of green: a park or public garden is just a couple of streets away. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the CBS data shows a mix of families and singles, with average household size at 2.3 people.

There are two primary schools within a couple of streets: Openbare Basisschool de Vlaamse Reus and Basisschool De Zevensprong. A GP is also a five-minute walk away. The neighbourhood is well served by restaurants and public transport, though the nearest train station is 3.7 km away, a ten-minute cycle or short bus ride.

About Leuvenstraat 78, Amsterdam
At €550,000, this is the most expensive of the three apartments currently for sale in Nieuw-Sloten-Zuidoost. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €545,000, so it is slightly above the local norm. However, the apartment is 93 m², which is close to the average floor area of 96 m² for homes sold here recently. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the quiet location and modern build.
The energy label is C. This is a middling score, the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. In the neighbourhood, 66.7% of homes have label A, 22.2% label B, and only 11.1% label C, so this apartment is less efficient than most in the area. You can expect moderate energy costs, but nothing extreme.

Both are well-regarded with around 350-380 pupils. For secondary education, the nearest school is 0.6 km away, so older children can walk or cycle easily.
