De Omval: a small, urban enclave
De Omval is a tiny neighbourhood with just 730 residents, mostly in one-person households. It's densely built and very urban, the address density is 6,700 per km², so you're right in the thick of things. The area has a young feel: nearly half the population is between 25 and 45. There are no reviews from residents, but the figures speak for themselves, a place where people live alone or as couples, with few children. The neighbourhood De Omval is a compact, lively spot within the larger city.
Daily life on Omval
For your morning bread, the AH to go is just around the corner, and an Aldi is a five-minute walk away. Albert Heijn is a couple of streets further. Schools are close too: Montessorischool de Amstel (primary) is a five-minute walk, and Orion College Amstel (secondary special education) is just around the corner. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's amenities, but here you have the basics on your doorstep without the constant bustle.

Frequently asked questions
About Omval 105, Amsterdam
Is €680,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €680,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €738,750 and the median of €702,500. Recently sold apartments in De Omval went for an average of €694,286, so this home is priced competitively. Given the 79 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €8,607, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €8,030 per m², but the overall price is still on the keen side.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is average for a home built in 1997. In De Omval, most homes have label A or better (over 86% are A or A+), so this one is less efficient than many neighbours. You can expect moderate energy costs, not the lowest, but not excessive either.

What is the neighbourhood like in terms of safety?
De Omval recorded 91 total crimes in the latest data. With 730 residents, that's a relatively low crime rate. The area feels safe, especially given its quiet, residential character along the Amstel.
