What does a rental property cost in Wijk 00? An average of €2,485 in the free sector
Wijk 00 in Ouder-Amstel has a housing stock of over 6,390 homes, 45% of which are rental properties. That sounds like a reasonable share, but when you look at the breakdown, it stands out that 32% of all homes are owned by housing associations. Only 13% are rented out by other landlords, meaning the free-sector supply is limited.

The range runs from €800 to €4,950, with an average floor area of 95 square metres. That is substantial, especially considering that the average disposable income in this neighbourhood is €47,700. The WOZ value of €558,000 exactly matches the municipal average of Ouder-Amstel, so in terms of property value you are right at the municipal level.

Living among allotments and children's voices: how residents experience Wijk 00
Wijk 00 scores a 7.9 out of 10 based on resident reviews on the neighbourhood page of Wijk 00. That is a solid score, but the story behind that number is more interesting than the figure itself. Residents particularly appreciate the safety (8.7), the beauty of the surroundings (8.1) and the education (8.4). Resident Jeroen sums it up succinctly: "The neighbourhood is quiet, child-friendly and safe. There is a primary school a stone's throw away. There are also allotments nearby, which bring cosiness and nature." Those allotments come up frequently in reviews and give the neighbourhood a village character you would not expect so close to Amsterdam.
Yet it is not all roses. Resident R. gives the neighbourhood a 5.9 and points to concrete areas for improvement: too few lampposts in some streets and a shortage of parking spaces. "Accessibility is also minimal due to sometimes too few parking spaces," writes R. The score for amenities (7.1) is the lowest sub-score, which fits the picture of a neighbourhood where you have to go to Amsterdam city centre for extensive shopping or nightlife. Accessibility scores an 8.0, which makes sense: Duivendrecht station is within cycling distance and offers connections to metro, train and bus.
The neighbourhood consists of clearly distinct areas. In Ouderkerk aan de Amstel you will find the historic village heart with narrow streets along the river. Duivendrecht has a more urban character with new-build homes and good public transport connections. Around it lie the quieter areas such as the Rondehoeppolder and the Bullewijker polder, where you really live rurally. A resident who has lived there for a long time sums it up: "I have lived there for a very long time and almost nothing strange has ever happened." That lack of excitement is exactly what many renters here are looking for. On the website of the municipality of Ouder-Amstel you will find more information about ongoing developments in the neighbourhood.

Small neighbourhood. Different types of houses. Nice people living there. The community is not very large/good. In terms of safety, it could be improved by placing more lampposts. Accessibility is also minimal due to a shortage of parking spaces sometimes.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a relatively new neighbourhood, about 10 years old. It is quiet and child-friendly, and there is a primary school within walking distance. Furthermore, there are allotment gardens nearby, which bring cosiness and nature. There is also a nursing home for the elderly and senior housing close by. Seniors generally do not cause any nuisance. There are not very many dog owners, and most of those who are there clean up the poop. There are underground waste containers, and organic waste is collected separately via wheelie bins. Also not far from here is the municipal waste depot where people can dispose of bulky waste, so that kind of rubbish is not found on the streets. A downside is that public transport is not nearby. An artisan bakery is close by, as well as two churches. Those churches can of course cause a bit of nuisance on Sundays, but it's only a quarter of an hour that the church bells ring.

Auto-translated to English by AIAs a born and bred Amsterdammer, this is the place to live if you crave peace and quiet and also want to be close to the city. It offers many opportunities in terms of space, being able to park your car, public transport, and the sense of community of a village. Authentic and close to other villages such as Abcoude, Amstelveen and Buitenveldert.
Auto-translated to English by AI-nice and close to Amsterdam -but still a village just too many cyclists
