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 112, Amsterdam
Yes, it's a keen price. The rent is 32% below the neighbourhood average of €1,345 for rental homes. However, the studio is also smaller than average (28 m² vs 42 m²), so the price per square metre is roughly in line with the market. Given the modern build and energy label B, it offers good value.
One resident says they almost never feel unsafe, though they note the area has a mixed reputation. The neighbourhood has a total of 289 reported crimes, which is typical for a dense urban area. As a 1.90m man, the resident feels safe walking around, but perceptions may vary.
Albert Heijn is 144 m away, Lidl is 178 m, and there are several other supermarkets within a kilometre. Primary school OBS de Toekomst is 81 m away, and secondary school DENISE is 333 m. A park is 400 m away, and the train station is 1 km from the home.
Homes in Overtoomse Veld-Zuid are rented out quickly, on average within 20 days. This suggests a fast-moving market, so if you're interested, it's worth acting promptly.
The energy label is B, which is quite efficient. You can expect relatively low energy costs compared to older homes with lower labels. The home was built in 2017, so it likely has good insulation and modern heating.
