Very good · 1 resident
I have been living in this neighbourhood for 19 years now and have a good relationship with our neighbours. Fun events are regularly organised that the neighbourhood can join in with. My children went to school here and have built up many friends in the area. It is a cosy little village, most people know each other and care about one another.

About Niersstraat 22-3, Amsterdam
The asking price is 47% above the neighbourhood average of €852,061, but this apartment is also 67% larger than the typical 96 m² in Scheldebuurt-West. The price per m² works out at about €7,813, which is below the neighbourhood average of €9,159 per m². So while the total is high, you are getting more space for your money compared to other homes in the area.
The home has energy label F, which is the second-lowest rating. In the neighbourhood, only 26.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this apartment is less efficient than most. You can expect higher heating costs, and the property may need insulation upgrades to improve the label. The exact costs depend on usage and future improvements.
