Life in the Oosterparkbuurt-Zuidwest
Residents of the wider Oosterparkbuurt district give their area an average score of 7.7, based on five reviews. One resident who has lived there all their life describes it as a nice neighbourhood where everything is nearby, from the Albert Heijn to the hairdresser, with the Oosterpark within walking distance and plenty of trams and buses passing by. They note that it is not quite the centre of Amsterdam and therefore, apart from the HvA students, very quiet and chill. Another resident, living on the Vrolikstraat, says they feel so happy there, ten minutes by bike from work, on a green quiet street, yet right in the middle of the most beautiful city in the country. A third review mentions that bins and containers are often overused, which can smell bad in summer. The neighbourhood has around 3,040 inhabitants, and 60% of households are single-person households.
