Frederik Hendrikbuurt-Zuidoost, Amsterdam
This rental apartment on the Tweede Hugo de Grootstraat sits in a lively part of Amsterdam. The 56 m² home dates from 1901 but carries an A energy label, so heating costs should be manageable. At €3,000 per month, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €2,750, but it reflects the efficient label and central location. For context, see other apartments in Amsterdam.
The neighbourhood has a very high address density (12,144 addresses per km²), typical of a strongly urban area.

One resident says: "I regret that only junkies and alcoholics are placed in these small houses; as a non-addict, I have to stand up for myself in an unpleasant way." Another notes: "Occasionally strange people on the street, especially at night, no burglaries though. Small houses for a hefty price unfortunately."

About Tweede Hugo de Grootstraat 28F, Amsterdam
The asking rent of €3,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €2,750 for rental homes. However, this apartment has an A energy label, which is more efficient than many older properties in the area. The price per square metre works out at about €53.57, compared to the neighbourhood average of €42.31. Whether it is fair depends on your priorities for energy efficiency and location.
The energy label is A, which is the second-best rating on the scale. This means the home is very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs. The label is an official registration from EP-Online and does not necessarily reflect the condition of the building itself.

How residents experience their municipality
IJburg is a new district still under development and it's getting better with all the amenities and a beach nearby. And you're also quickly out of the city and into the greenery.

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Auto-translated to English by AINice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice quiet neighbourhood on the edge of the city but still close to many good amenities that a city has to offer. The neighbourhood is still becoming more beautiful.
