Frederik Hendrikbuurt-Zuidoost: a mixed urban pocket

With 3,200 residents packed into a very strong urban density (12,144 addresses per km²), this is city living at its most intense. Two residents share their views: one 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 "lots of crazies, but also many kind people who just haven't been so lucky in life" and adds that burglaries aren't an issue. The neighbourhood Frederik Hendrikbuurt-Zuidoost is overwhelmingly made up of single-person households (1,385 out of 2,085), and most homes are rentals (72%).

Daily life on the street

For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Dirk a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, Daltonschool De Waterkant and Basisschool Dr. Rijk Kramer, are both within a five-minute walk, and the Marcanti College for secondary education is a couple of streets away too. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and dining options you'd expect, with a restaurant just around the corner and a park a five-minute walk off.

My street

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. I would be happy if I could move.

Lots of crazies, but also many kind people who just haven't been so lucky in life

Occasionally strange people on the street, especially at night, no burglaries though. Small houses for a hefty price unfortunately
