De Eenhoorn, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis is a room on Pierre Lallementstraat in De Eenhoorn, a lively part of Amsterdam. At €854 a month, the rent sits well below the neighbourhood average, which makes it a keen option for someone looking for a compact base in the city. The room is part of the social housing stock, so it is aimed at those who qualify for that scheme. For a sense of what else is available, you can compare it with other rooms in Amsterdam.
De Eenhoorn is a densely populated area, with a very high address density that reflects its urban character. Most households here are single people, and the age profile skews young, with over half of residents between 25 and 45. It is a neighbourhood without much family presence, so the vibe is more about city living than suburban calm. There are no resident reviews available for this area, so the picture here comes from the statistics. You can read more about the De Eenhoorn neighbourhood for further context.

About Pierre Lallementstraat 120, Amsterdam
The rent of €854 is 51% below the neighbourhood average of €1,752, which makes it a keen price for the area. The room is 34 m², smaller than the average home in De Eenhoorn, but the cost per square metre is favourable. Given the social housing designation, the rent reflects that status rather than the open market.
The energy label is C, which is a mid-range label on the official scale. It is an official registration, so it reflects the property's energy performance as recorded. A C label means energy costs are likely to be moderate, though the exact amount will depend on usage and the current energy prices.
At 34 m², this room is 52% smaller than the average home in De Eenhoorn, which stands at 71 m². That makes it a compact option, suited to someone who does not need a lot of space. The trade-off is the lower rent, which is well below the neighbourhood average.
Homes in De Eenhoorn are rented out on average within 17 days, according to recent figures. That suggests a fairly active rental market in the area. For a room at this price, interest is likely to be strong, so it is worth being prepared to move quickly if you are interested.
De Eenhoorn is a very urban area with a high address density. Most households are single people, making up 81% of the total, and the largest age group is 25 to 45-year-olds at 52%. Families with children are a small minority, so the area has a young, city-oriented feel rather than a suburban one.
A Vomar supermarket is just around the corner at about 224 metres, and a Lidl is a couple of streets away. For schools, the Pieter Nieuwland College is very close, and primary schools are within a short walk. A train station is about 0.8 km away, and a park is roughly 0.5 km from the room.

How residents experience their municipality
Een hele fijne, rustige buurt met veel groen en geweldige bomen die verkoeling en ontspanning bieden. 's nachts is het er stil en donker. Dat vind ik belangrijk voor de dieren. De buurt is goed bereikbaar met metro 54 en voorzieningen zijn op loopafstand in winkelcentrum de Poort. 1 ding is een ongelofelijke doorn in het oog en dat is de hygiene. Het is dagelijks een puinzoo bij de vuilcontainers. Zwerfafval waait overal naar toe. En hoewel we met een aantal bewoners dagelijks 'prikken' en opruimen is het een never ending story. Ik zou zo graag zien dat daar een oplossing voor komt.

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Auto-translated to English by AINice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.
