Living in Amstel III part A/B-Noord, Amsterdam

Amstel III part A/B-Noord is not a classic residential neighbourhood in the Amsterdam sense. The neighbourhood is part of the former Amstel III business park, which has been rapidly transformed into a mixed residential and work area in recent years. Anyone looking for a rental home here will mainly find new-build apartments in large-scale complexes, often with a sleek, modern character. Think glass facades, communal courtyards and facilities such as a fitness room or bicycle cellar within the building itself. Older porch flats or terraced houses are hardly found here.

The population composition is telling: of the 980 residents, over 65% are between 25 and 45 years old. It mainly concerns young working adults, starters on the labour market and expats who find a home through their employer or via a rental agent. The proportion of families is limited, the proportion of single-person households is relatively large (235 of the 274 homes). The average income of €55,900 is clearly above the Amsterdam average of €44,276, which partly explains the higher rental prices.

Facilities in Amstel III part A/B-Noord

The neighbourhood is still under development and this is noticeable in the facilities structure. Supermarkets and daily shopping can be done in the immediate vicinity at the Albert Heijn on Karspeldreef or at shops in the nearby shopping centre of the Bijlmer. For a wider range of shops, Amsterdamse Poort in Amsterdam Zuidoost is within cycling distance. Primary schools are located in the adjacent residential neighbourhoods; the neighbourhood itself does not have its own primary school. In terms of sports and green spaces, the nearby Gaasperplas park offers space for running, swimming and recreation by the water. The AMC, the academic medical centre, is a short distance away, which is a practical advantage for healthcare staff. Hospitality in the neighbourhood itself is limited; the neighbourhood has more the character of a residential-work area than a lively city centre.

Accessibility

Accessibility by public transport is one of the strongest points of renting in Amstel III part A/B-Noord. Bullewijk metro station (line 53) is within walking distance and takes you to Amsterdam Central in about twenty minutes. Amstel metro station and Duivendrecht station are also easily accessible for intercity connections towards Utrecht and Schiphol. By car, the neighbourhood connects directly to the A2 and A9, which makes the location favourable for commuter traffic. Cycling to the centre takes about 25 to 35 minutes via the Amsteldijk. Parking in the new-build complexes is often arranged via a car park or permit zone; check this per complex, as the situation varies per building.

Residents appreciate the peace and modern living quality, but are sometimes critical about the lack of neighbourhood feeling and the scarce daily facilities within walking distance. One resident writes: "You live here nice and quiet and modern, but for a croquette or a cup of coffee you still have to get on your bike."
