Landlust-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis rental apartment on Willem de Zwijgerlaan sits in Landlust-Zuid, a neighbourhood that has come into its own in recent years. With 118 m² of living space, it is larger than many rentals in the area. The building dates from 1935 but the home has an A energy label, so it is well insulated. At €3,100 per month, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €2,263, but the size and energy efficiency help explain it. For context, this is one of the apartments in Amsterdam that stands out for its floor area.

Another describes it as "quiet but still quite lively with a perfect combination of young professionals and families. You can reach Oud-West and Jordaan in 5 minutes by bike. Walking distance to Erasmus-Park and Westerpark. Very hip and with a sense of community." The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many 25-to-45-year-olds, and most households are single-person. It is very densely built-up, with over 9,700 addresses per km².
For groceries, you have an Albert Heijn just around the corner, and another a couple of streets away. There are also several primary schools within a five-minute walk, such as Kindcentrum de Vindplaats and De Visserschool. A secondary school, Marcanti College, is about a five-minute walk away.

Everything has been renovated. Quiet and safe neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIThis is a neighborhood that has improved a lot in the last 10 years. The buurt is quiet but still quite lively with a perfect combination of young professionals and families. You can reach Oud-West and Jordaan in 5 minutes by bike. Walking distance to Erasmus-Park and Westerpak. Very hip and with a sense of community.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in this neighbourhood my whole life and it's fantastic! There's plenty to do, just outside the city centre so there are few tourists. People really live here, there are many parks nearby and plenty of amenities! House prices aren't great, but if you live here, I think this is one of the simplest yet nicest neighbourhoods in the city. I work in a bakery in the neighbourhood myself, so I see hundreds of people from the area every weekend; they're healthy and fun people. I'm very proud of my neighbourhood.
