One resident sums it up: "It's really a good neighbourhood. It's easily accessible by metro and tram, except at night. There's only 1 bus in the area and that one at 5 in the morning (to Schiphol) is super annoying. Furthermore, it's nicely green with parks and trees in the neighbourhood. There are also many amenities; shops, bakeries, butchers, eateries, really everything. Also, it's very safe, there are occasional burglaries but they are minor and only target shops. Furthermore, no one has been murdered or large drug labs found in years. Just lock your bike properly. The houses are nice and good, but WAY TOO EXPENSIVE!" The neighbourhood scores an 8.25 out of 10 based on one review.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo and Coop are a couple of streets away. There are several schools within walking distance: the Montessori Lyceum Amsterdam is a couple of streets away, and the 9e Montessorischool De Scholekster is just around the corner. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and recreational opportunities you'd expect from the capital.
