Living in Augustinuspark, Amstelveen
Augustinuspark is a compact, urban neighbourhood in the heart of Keizer Karelpark, the district that connects Amstelveen with the edge of Amsterdam. The neighbourhood has a mixed character: on the one hand, apartment blocks and porch-access flats from the 1960s and 1970s, on the other, an active, relatively young population that gives the neighbourhood a certain vibrancy. The largest age group consists of 25- to 45-year-olds, which is also noticeable in the mix of young families, couples and single-person households living here.
In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood is well equipped for daily use. The Stadshart of Amstelveen, with an Albert Heijn, several specialist shops, restaurants and the theatre, is within cycling distance. For groceries, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood. For educational facilities, there are primary schools in the immediate vicinity, although education scores a 6.0 as one of the lower sub-scores in resident reviews. Parents looking for a home to buy here would do well to explore school choices in advance via the municipality of Amstelveen.
Accessibility is one of the neighbourhood's stronger points. Amstelveen is well connected via the North-South line, with Amstelveen Centrum metro station within walking distance. You can reach Amsterdam Central in about twenty minutes. For motorists, the A9 is easily accessible, making connections to Schiphol and the rest of the region easier. Residents give accessibility a 7.0, a solid score that matches reality.
What stands out to residents are safety and community spirit. Both score remarkably high: a 9.0. That is not a given for an urban neighbourhood with many rental properties and a relatively high housing density. Green space scores a lower 6.0, which is understandable given the built-up character of the neighbourhood. There are green strips and squares, but a real park in the neighbourhood is largely absent. Those looking for more greenery might consider Oude Dorp or the Kastanjebuurt, neighbourhoods in the same district with a slightly greener character. The Populierenbuurt also offers an alternative for those seeking more space. Read all resident reviews and view the full neighbourhood data on the page for Augustinuspark.
Does a home to buy in Augustinuspark suit you as a buyer?
Augustinuspark mainly appeals to first-time buyers and young dual-income couples who want to buy in Amstelveen without paying the highest prices in the municipality. However, the average sale price of over €525,000 is no longer an entry-level price, so the neighbourhood is not exactly cheap either. Movers looking for more space can turn to the more expensive homes in the higher segment, but supply is limited. Those who want to be flexible can also look at rental properties in Augustinuspark as a temporary alternative. Be prepared for competition at viewings and allow for a possible overbidding situation for popular properties.
