Overtoomse Veld-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis rental apartment on Marius Bauerstraat sits in the Overtoomse Veld-Zuid neighbourhood of Amsterdam. The listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €2,100 per month, the rent is 25% above the neighbourhood average, but the 81 m² floor area is 65% larger than the typical 49 m² in the area, so the price per square metre is actually in line with the market. For context, this is one of the apartments in Amsterdam available for rent.
The neighbourhood Overtoomse Veld-Zuid is a diverse, green part of Amsterdam Nieuw-West. One resident describes it as "Pretty decent" and notes: "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." The area has a mix of young and old, with many single-person households and a relatively young population. The streets are lively, though the resident mentions that "the street is also very dirty, because apparently nobody cares about nature and the streetscape." Despite that, the greenery and cosy atmosphere are appreciated.
For daily groceries, you have a Lidl just around the corner and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. There's also an AH to go within a five-minute walk. For school runs, the Alexander Roozendaalschool (special education) is on your doorstep, OBS de Toekomst (primary) is just around the corner, and the Comenius Lyceum (secondary) is a five-minute walk away. The municipality Amsterdam offers plenty of amenities nearby, including a GP practice, restaurants, and a park all within a few minutes' walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk away, and the metro also serves the area.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including LIV Residential and Pararius. The agent has not published the energy label, so that detail is not available in this listing.

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.
