The Startbaanbuurt
The Startbaanbuurt is a quiet, residential pocket of Amstelveen, and the single review on is honest about it: "Mediocre neighbourhood, mediocre district, mediocre facilities." It is a fair summary, though the area does have its practical sides, with most daily needs within easy reach. The population skews young, with a large share of residents in the 25 to 45 age bracket, and many households are singles. The Startbaanbuurt neighbourhood is not flashy, but it is functional and well placed for getting around.
Life on the street
For daily shopping, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Coop and a PLUS are a couple of streets away, so grabbing bread or groceries is never a chore. There are several schools nearby, including the Amstelveen College and the Hermann Wesselink College for secondary education, both within a short walk. A primary school is a ten-minute walk away, and a childcare centre is even closer, which suits families with young children. The train station is about 7.8 km away, so commuting by rail means a short cycle or drive first. The municipality of Amstelveen keeps the wider area well connected, with parks and amenities not far off.
