Van der Helstpleinbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Sint Willibrordusstraat sits in one of Amsterdam's liveliest neighbourhoods. Built in 2020, it has an A energy label and 52 m² of well-designed living space. The rent of €2,700 is keen, 20% below the neighbourhood average of €3,370, and homes here are typically rented within 16 days, so it's a fast-moving market. For context, this is one of the apartments in Amsterdam currently available.
The Van der Helstpleinbuurt is a dense, urban pocket of the Nieuwe Pijp. With over 11,900 addresses per km², it's very strongly urban. Most households are single-person (1,580 out of 2,555), and the average household size is 1.5. One resident sums it up: "It's really a good neighbourhood. It's easily accessible by metro and tram, except at night. There's only 1 bus in the area and that one at 5 in the morning (to Schiphol) is super annoying. Furthermore, it's nicely green with parks and trees in the neighbourhood. There are also many amenities; shops, bakeries, butchers, eateries, really everything. Also, it's very safe, there are occasional burglaries but they are minor and only target shops. Furthermore, no one has been murdered or large drug labs found in years. Just lock your bike properly. The houses are nice and good, but WAY TOO EXPENSIVE! Renting here is a nightmare if it's not social housing:/" This is based on one review. For more on the area, see the Van der Helstpleinbuurt neighbourhood.
