Uilenburg is one of Amsterdam's smallest neighbourhoods, a former island in the eastern canal belt. With 1,255 residents packed into a dense urban grid, it's lively and compact. Most households are single-person (520 out of 835), and the average household size is just 1.5. There are few children, only 70 under 15, so the vibe is more about professionals and couples. The neighbourhood Uilenburg has no single-family homes; it's all apartments, many in historic buildings. Yet this 2006 build stands out for its modern construction. Crime figures are relatively high (258 incidents), but residents appreciate the central location and the quiet streets away from the main tourist drag.
Your morning coffee is just around the corner: Albert Heijn is 70 metres away, and Ekoplaza is 200 metres. For a quick bite, there's an AH to go three minutes' walk. The nearest primary school, De Witte Olifant, is 99 metres away, ideal for families with young children. Two other primary schools, St. Antoniusschool and Dr. E. Boekmanschool, are within a ten-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and recreational options you'd expect, from museums to parks, with the nearest park 800 metres away.
