Nieuw-Sloten-Noordwest is a quiet, planned residential neighbourhood on the western side of Amsterdam, built in the 1990s as part of the VINEX location Nieuw-Sloten. The streets are wide, there is plenty of greenery between the housing blocks, and cars are largely parked in parking bays at the edges of the residential courtyards. It feels more like a spacious suburb than an urban neighbourhood, which residents who consciously choose peace and space experience as a plus. The architecture is predominantly 1990s: terraced houses with gardens, occasionally a detached house or a semi-detached house, and here and there a porch flat.
