The Orteliusbuurt-Zuid neighbourhood

This is a dense, urban pocket of Amsterdam with a strong sense of community. One resident describes it as 'lots of cosiness', spontaneous and friendly. The area is mostly pre-war buildings, and the population is young: over half of residents are between 25 and 45. Many live alone (660 one-person households), and there are relatively few families with children. The energy label D is common here, about 14% of homes for sale have a D or lower. The Orteliusbuurt-Zuid neighbourhood is well connected and has a lively street scene.

Life on the street

Your daily errands are easy: an Aldi is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. For primary schools, OBS Corantijn is a five-minute walk, and the Joop en Willy Westerweel school is about ten minutes away. There are also several Montessori schools within walking distance. The area has a high address density (over 10,000 per km²), so it's busy but everything you need is close by. The municipality of Amsterdam offers a wide range of amenities, from parks to libraries.
