It's a friendly neighbourhood. The neighbours are nice, we help each other and if something happens, everyone knows about it, so it's a very pleasant neighbourhood except for the children of today who shout and swear and open your parcels. But otherwise it's a nice neighbourhood. But when it comes to rubbish, it's really bad, the council does little to keep the waste tidy. They need to clear the rubbish more often.

About Van Heuven Goedhartlaan 520, Amstelveen
The asking price of €395,000 is 50% below the neighbourhood average of €782,590, but the apartment is also 42% smaller than the average home in Elsrijk Oost (65 m² vs 113 m²). Given the smaller size, the price per square metre works out at about €6,077, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €6,393 per m². So it's priced keenly for its size.
The apartment has energy label D. This is a mid-range label, meaning the home is reasonably efficient but not as economical as newer builds. You can expect moderate energy costs, though exact amounts depend on usage. In the neighbourhood, about 33% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
Residents give mixed feedback. One review highlights that safety is paramount and hygiene is top, while another mentions that rubbish collection could be improved, with the council doing little to keep waste tidy.

There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Montessori Kindcentrum Mio Mondo (about a five-minute walk) and De Bloeiwijzer (a bit further). For secondary education, Futuris is about a ten-minute walk away. The area is well served for families with school-age children.
