Overtoomse Veld-Zuid has a mixed reputation, but one resident sums it up: "It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad." They note that while there are occasional disturbances, the area feels safe (especially as a tall man), and there's a lot of greenery. "It can be very cosy," they add, though the streets can be dirty. The neighbourhood is densely populated with 5,906 addresses per km², and most homes are flats (only 3% are single-family). Many residents are young adults (25-45 years old), and the area has a high proportion of one-person households. For more on the area, see the Overtoomse Veld-Zuid neighbourhood.
For your morning bread, Lidl is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There's also an AH to go within a five-minute walk.

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.
