There's only one Jordaan!

I was born and raised in this neighbourhood. I wouldn't want to swap this neighbourhood for any other district in Amsterdam. The shops and markets are within walking distance of my home. And people give each other a helping hand when needed. The social contacts are great.

My cosy living environment

In this neighbourhood you will find a mixed population. Old and young, rich and less rich. But still we make sure among ourselves that the neighbourhood remains safe and that you can call on someone if necessary.

Cosy neighbourhood with familiar faces

I think the Elandsgracht neighbourhood is great, actually the Jordaan too. Lots of familiar faces so everyone is somewhat known to each other. The Jordaan also has a large share of history with names like André Hazes, Willem Holleeder and tante Leen. In short, a nice neighbourhood where a lot happened back in the day and very nice neighbours!

Pleasant to live here

This neighbourhood is really a piece of Amsterdam. Old canals, a bit messy, but cosy. You have those little shops and pubs there, a real mix of everything. By tram you're in the city centre in no time, so that's great. Tourists? Yes, you see them, but it doesn't really bother me. I feel quite safe there, despite the crowds.

Cosy

It's cosy here with many shops and eateries in the neighbourhood. In my opinion, my street is visited too much by loitering youths; my neighbours seem to find that cosy too. Little to no trouble with crime. Good public transport connections.
