The Watercirkelbuurt
One resident describes the Watercirkelbuurt neighbourhood as a place where children always want to play outside, with neighbours who get along well.

Based on that single review, the neighbourhood scores 7.88 out of 10. Around a quarter of households have children, and just over half are single-person households, so the mix is varied.

About Marne 118, Amstelveen
Is €1,960 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent of €1,960 is above the neighbourhood average of €1,417 per month, but this home is also larger than most rentals in the area.
