Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is nicely laid out with lots of greenery, open waterways, very good amenities, perfect public transport, plenty of parking space. It doesn't get any better in Amsterdam and thankfully still tourist-free. The centre and Vondelpark are nearby but often I don't feel like leaving the neighbourhood at all. People in the neighbourhood are friendly, quiet and a bit to themselves but I like that. Never experienced any aggression or crime!! I hope my neighbourhood doesn't become hip and stays like this!
Auto-translated to English by AII was born here in 1963 and have seen many changes. I feel perfectly at ease in Amsterdam Nieuw West; it keeps looking better and better.
