I've lived here my whole life and it's a nice neighbourhood. Everything is nearby, from Albert Heijn to the hairdresser. Also, Oosterpark is within walking distance and there are plenty of trams and buses passing by. It's not quite the centre of Amsterdam and therefore (apart from the HvA students) very quiet and chill. There are also many schools, Basisschool Aldoende or the HvA, always a place to learn! However, a downside is the rubbish; bins and containers are often overused, so in some places, especially in summer, it can smell really bad. Speaking of people, there are plenty! Just like houses, there are many family apartments and studios, so a mix of solo living and family life! So overall, a nice and educational neighbourhood!
Auto-translated to English by AIA stone's throw from Oosterpark you'll find Tweede Boerhaavestraat 70h. The street is remarkably quiet, which makes the neighbourhood unique, because at the same time we are surrounded by various theatres, eateries, shops and other centres. Enjoy living here every day.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy little neighbourhood, very multicultural. Little contact with neighbours, that could be improved.
