Overtoomse Veld-Zuid has a reputation that's partly justified, partly not. One resident says: "It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad. Yes, every now and then you hear an explosion, which certainly isn't pleasant, but when I walk through the neighbourhood there's also a lot of diversity and I almost never feel unsafe." They add: "It can be very cosy and there's a lot of greenery in the area." The neighbourhood is densely populated (5,906 addresses per km²) and mostly consists of flats, with many young adults and singles. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Overtoomse Veld-Zuid.
For your morning bread, an AH to go is just around the corner, and a Lidl and Albert Heijn are a couple of streets away. Schools are close too: the Comenius Lyceum (secondary) is a five-minute walk, and several special education schools are even closer. A park or garden is a couple of streets away, and the municipality Amsterdam offers plenty of urban amenities within easy reach.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including IB Makelaars, Vastgoed Nederland, and Funda.

I live in Nieuw-West in Amsterdam. It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad. Yes, every now and then you hear an explosion, which certainly isn't pleasant, but when you walk through the neighbourhood there's also a lot of diversity and I almost never feel unsafe (though that doesn't say much as a 1.90m man). Furthermore, it can be very cosy and there's a lot of greenery in the area, which is also very nice. The buildings are ugly, but I can live with that. The street is also very dirty, because apparently nobody cares about nature and the streetscape, so everything gets thrown on the street. In terms of amenities, there's enough, but if I need clothes, for example, I have to go to the city centre, so that's why it's not rated very high but still sufficient. The city centre is (by Amsterdam standards) fortunately not very far to cycle and there's also a train station nearby and the metro goes there too.
