I live in Nieuw-West in Amsterdam. It doesn't have a very good reputation, which is partly justified but partly not so bad. Yes, every now and then you hear an explosion, which certainly isn't pleasant, but when you walk through the neighbourhood there's also a lot of diversity and I almost never feel unsafe (though that doesn't say much as a 1.90m man). Furthermore, it can be very cosy and there's a lot of greenery in the area, which is also very nice. The buildings are ugly, but I can live with that. The street is also very dirty, because apparently nobody cares about nature and the streetscape, so everything gets thrown on the street. In terms of amenities, there's enough, but if I need clothes, for example, I have to go to the city centre, so that's why it's not rated very high but still sufficient. The city centre is (by Amsterdam standards) fortunately not very far to cycle and there's also a train station nearby and the metro goes there too.

About August Allebéplein 1064, Amsterdam
Yes, it's well below the neighbourhood average of €1,683 for rentals, and also below the median of €1,228. The 28 m² is smaller than the average 49 m² in the area, so the price per m² is about €32.67, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €30.20 per m². Overall, it's a market-rate price for a studio in this part of Amsterdam.
One resident says they almost never feel unsafe, though they note that occasional explosions happen. The neighbourhood has a mixed reputation, but the resident, a 1.90m man, feels safe walking around. The area has a lot of diversity and greenery. Crime statistics show 289 total offences in the neighbourhood, but without context it's hard to compare.
The nearest train station is 1 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The metro also serves the area, and the city centre is not far by bike.
Rentals in Overtoomse Veld-Zuid are rented out in an average of 20 days, which indicates a fairly quick market. With only 11 rentals currently available, competition can be brisk. This studio's low price may attract interest quickly.
Energy label C is average for a home of this age (built in 2017). It means the home is reasonably efficient, so heating and electricity costs should be moderate. You won't face the high bills of a label G home, but it's not as efficient as an A-label. Exact costs depend on usage.
Yes, a park or public garden is 0.4 km away, about a five-minute walk. The resident review also mentions a lot of greenery in the area. The neighbourhood has a park within easy reach, and the wider Amsterdam area offers many green spaces.
