Living in Rembrandtpark-Noord, Amsterdam

Rembrandtpark-Noord is a compact, urban neighbourhood on the west side of Amsterdam, directly adjacent to Rembrandtpark. The neighbourhood has a distinctly young character: of the more than 1,000 residents, the largest group is between 15 and 25 years old (around 400 people), followed by the 25 to 45 age group. Seniors and families are clearly in the minority. More than half of households consist of a single person, and only 9% of residents are married. That says something about who lives here: predominantly young singles, students, and first-time buyers on the housing market.

The buildings consist mainly of multi-family homes, such as porch flats and gallery apartments, recognisable as post-war Amsterdam construction. The homes are compact but functional, and thanks to the location next to the park, the neighbourhood feels less stony than you might expect given the building density. The park itself is a real asset: walking, running, sports, and relaxation, all within walking distance.
