Overtoomse Veld-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Theodoor van Hoytemastraat is a calm, light-filled home in a part of Amsterdam that's greener and quieter than its reputation suggests. With 121 m² of floor space, it's significantly larger than the neighbourhood average of 73 m². The price of €795,000 is on the high side compared to the local average of €492,786, but that reflects the size and the A energy label. It's the most expensive of the 14 apartments currently for sale in the area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one stands out for its generous proportions.
Overtoomse Veld-Zuid is a diverse, green neighbourhood with a mix of cultures and ages. One resident describes it as 'Pretty decent', noting that while it doesn't have the best reputation, they almost never feel unsafe. They appreciate the greenery and cosy atmosphere, though they mention the streets can be dirty. The area has a strong urban feel with a high address density, and many residents are young adults between 25 and 45. For more on the area, see the Overtoomse Veld-Zuid neighbourhood.
For daily shopping, you have a Lidl just around the corner and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. There are several schools within walking distance, including the 7e Montessorischool for primary education and the Alexander Roozendaalschool for special education. The neighbourhood also has a GP practice, a restaurant, and a park all within a few minutes' walk. The train station is about a ten-minute walk away, and the metro is also nearby.

I live in Nieuw-West in Amsterdam. It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad. Yes, every now and then you hear an explosion, which certainly isn't pleasant, but when you walk through the neighbourhood there's also a lot of diversity and I almost never feel unsafe (though that doesn't say much as a 1.90m man). Furthermore, it can be very cosy and there's a lot of greenery in the area, which is also very nice. The buildings are ugly, but I can live with that. The street is also very dirty, because apparently nobody cares about nature and the streetscape, so everything gets thrown on the street. In terms of amenities, there's enough, but if I need clothes, for example, I have to go to the city centre, so that's why it's not rated very high but still sufficient. The city centre is (by Amsterdam standards) fortunately not very far to cycle and there's also a train station nearby and the metro goes there too.
