The Van der Helstpleinbuurt neighbourhood
Based on one review, the neighbourhood scores 8.25 out of 10. One resident says: "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:/" The area is home to many single-person households, and the streets are lined with trees and small parks. It is a place where daily life is easy, with most essentials within reach. For a closer look at the area, see the Van der Helstpleinbuurt neighbourhood.
