Frequently asked questions
About Mauritsstraat 4, Amsterdam
Is €460,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price is €460,000, which is 39% below the neighbourhood average of €757,524. However, the floor area of 56 m² is 29% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 79 m². So the price per m² is actually higher than the neighbourhood average. Whether it's fair depends on how you value the compact size versus the lower absolute price.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (built in 1988). In the neighbourhood, about 41% of homes have label A, 23% label B, and 18% label C, so this home is in the middle of the pack. You can expect reasonable energy costs, but not as low as a modern A-label home.
How is the neighbourhood for daily shopping?
Very convenient. SPAR is just around the corner (245 m), and there's an AH to go nearby (280 m). For a full supermarket, Lidl is a five-minute walk (380 m) and Albert Heijn is about a ten-minute walk (449 m). So you have plenty of options for groceries within easy walking distance.
What schools are nearby?

What is the crime rate like in Weesperzijde-Noord?
The neighbourhood recorded 177 total crimes in the latest data. Given the population of 1,935, that's a rate of about 9.1 per 100 residents, which is relatively high. However, this is a dense urban area, and crime figures can vary by street. It's worth checking the immediate surroundings.
Is this a good area for families?
The neighbourhood has a young population, but only 175 households with children out of 1,125 total households. Most households are single-person (690). So while there are some families, it's more of a young professional and student area. There are primary schools nearby, but the vibe is urban and lively rather than family-oriented.
