Staalmanbuurt, Amsterdam
This 2017 end-of-terrace house sits in the Staalmanbuurt, a leafy pocket of Amsterdam where the streets are quiet and the pace is relaxed. With 124 m² of living space, it is a generous home for a family or anyone who wants room to spread out. The asking rent of €2,110 is on the high side compared with the neighbourhood average of €1,550, but the space is well above the local norm too. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Amsterdam tend to command a premium.
Residents give the Staalmanbuurt neighbourhood a solid 7.5 out of 10, based on two reviews. One resident describes it as "a place where everything comes together: peace, cosiness, and life," with trees, flowers, and small streets where people greet each other. Another calls it "a safe, pleasant neighbourhood where many families live," though they note that rubbish can sometimes be left out on the wrong days. The area is home to many families, and the mix of ages and household types gives it a lively but not hectic feel.
Daily errands are easy from here. The Einsteinschool is just around the corner, and the secondary school Lumion is a five-minute walk away. For groceries, you can reach a Lidl in about a ten-minute walk, with an Albert Heijn and a Dirk not much further. The neighbourhood has a real community feel, with children playing on the square and people stopping for a chat. The municipality of Amsterdam offers all the amenities you would expect from a major city, yet this corner of it feels calm and green.

About Henri Dunantstraat 67, Amsterdam
The rent is 36% above the neighbourhood average of €1,550, but the home is also 94% larger than the average rental in the area (124 m² versus 64 m²). With an energy label A and a 2017 build, the running costs should be modest. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra space and modern build.
The energy label is A, which is the most efficient label. This means the home is very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs compared with homes with lower labels. The label is an official registration and does not say anything about the condition of the building itself.
The nearest train station is 2.3 km away. That is a manageable distance if you commute by train, though you would likely cycle or take a bus to get there. The exact station is not named in the listing.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
I think my neighbourhood is so beautiful because it is a place where everything comes together: peace, cosiness, and life. All around me are trees, flowers, and small streets where people greet each other and have time for a chat. I hear birds singing in the morning and children laughing on the square in the afternoon. There is always something to do, but it never feels busy. People look after each other, and that makes it warm and familiar. I love the smell of freshly cut grass in summer and the lights that decorate the streets in winter. My neighbourhood feels like a second family, a place where I feel at home and where I step outside with a smile every day.

How residents experience their municipality
Een hele fijne, rustige buurt met veel groen en geweldige bomen die verkoeling en ontspanning bieden. 's nachts is het er stil en donker. Dat vind ik belangrijk voor de dieren. De buurt is goed bereikbaar met metro 54 en voorzieningen zijn op loopafstand in winkelcentrum de Poort. 1 ding is een ongelofelijke doorn in het oog en dat is de hygiene. Het is dagelijks een puinzoo bij de vuilcontainers. Zwerfafval waait overal naar toe. En hoewel we met een aantal bewoners dagelijks 'prikken' en opruimen is het een never ending story. Ik zou zo graag zien dat daar een oplossing voor komt.

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Auto-translated to English by AINice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.
