The Zuiderkerkbuurt is a dense, historic pocket of Amsterdam with around 1,600 residents.

There are no resident reviews available for this area, but the mix of ages, from students to pensioners, gives it a varied, urban feel. The neighbourhood Zuiderkerkbuurt is one of the city's most central, with an address density of 8,430 per km², making it very strongly urban.
Daily life here revolves around the neighbourhood's compact scale. For groceries, a SPAR is on your doorstep, and an AH to go is just around the corner. For a fuller shop, Ekoplaza is a couple of streets away. Primary schools are within a ten-minute walk: De Witte Olifant is a five-minute walk, and St. Antoniusschool is a couple of streets further. The municipality Amsterdam offers extensive amenities, but this part of the centre is particularly walkable, you're never far from a bakery, a canal or a tram stop.

About Staalstraat 14-3, Amsterdam
At €535,000, this is the cheapest apartment currently for sale in the Zuiderkerkbuurt and 45% below the average asking price of €971,000 in the neighbourhood. However, it's also smaller than average (56 m² vs 93 m²) and has an F energy label, which means higher energy costs. Compared to similar-sized apartments in Amsterdam, the price per m² (€9,554) is below the neighbourhood average of €10,307, so it's priced keenly for its size and location.
