There are few families with children (205), so the vibe is more about professionals and students. The neighbourhood has a mix of owner-occupied (32%) and rental homes, and the average sale price for homes sold recently was €628,622. For more details, see the Schinkelbuurt-Noord neighbourhood.

About Veerstraat 40-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €440,000 is 43% below the average asking price in Schinkelbuurt-Noord (€776,169) and also below the minimum asking price of €425,000 in the neighbourhood. However, the apartment is smaller than average (47 m² vs 77 m²). The price per m² works out to about €9,362, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €10,720 per m², so it is priced keenly for its size.
The home has energy label D. In the neighbourhood, 36% of homes have label C and 28% have label D or lower, so this is typical for the area. Label D means moderate energy efficiency, heating costs will be higher than in a modern home, but the apartment's compact size helps keep bills manageable.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride. The neighbourhood is well served by trams and buses, making it easy to reach Amsterdam's main stations.
Excellent. The nearest Albert Heijn is just 68 metres away, so you can pop out for groceries in seconds. A Dirk is 156 metres away and a Jumbo is 396 metres. There are also many restaurants within a couple of streets away, and a library is 1.2 km from home.
The listing does not specify the number of rooms. With 47 m², it is likely a one-bedroom or studio apartment, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent for the exact layout.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. Given the apartment is on the third floor (as per the address Veerstraat 40-3), it is unlikely to have private outdoor space, but the Vondelpark is a five-minute walk away.
The neighbourhood recorded 117 total crimes in the latest data. With a population of 2,475, that works out to about 47 crimes per 1,000 residents, which is moderate for a dense urban area. The neighbourhood feels safe during the day, but as with any city centre, it pays to be aware at night.
