Life in the Cornelis Troostbuurt
Residents of the wider district give their living environment an average score of 7.47, based on four reviews. One resident says: "Lively, with a tram stop right outside and the North-South line station across the street. Albert Cuyp Market within walking distance. Supermarkets within walking distance. Lively bars and restaurants directly below the homes on this side." Another resident notes: "It's really a good neighbourhood. It's easily accessible by metro and tram, except at night. There's only 1 bus in the area and that one at 5 in the morning (to Schiphol) is super annoying. Furthermore, it's nicely green with parks and trees in the neighbourhood. There are also many amenities; shops, bakeries, butchers, eateries, really everything." A third review is more mixed, describing the area as "sometimes nice, sometimes a lot of poverty, sometimes chaotic, sometimes ok." The neighbourhood has about 3,660 inhabitants, and 61% of households are single-person households. For more context, see the Cornelis Troostbuurt neighbourhood.
