Overtoomse Veld-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on August Allebéplein is a compact but efficient home in a lively part of Nieuw-West. At 28 m² it's small, but the rent of €915 is 46% below the neighbourhood average of €1,683, making it a keen option for a single person. For more context, see other studios in Amsterdam.
The neighbourhood has a mixed reputation, but one resident sums it up: "Pretty decent." They note that while there are occasional disturbances, the area feels safe (especially as a tall man), is diverse, and has plenty of greenery. On the downside, the streets can be dirty and the buildings are unattractive. Based on one review, it's a place with character. The area is densely populated (5,906 addresses per km²) and mostly consists of flats, with many young adults aged 25-45. Read more about the neighbourhood Overtoomse Veld-Zuid.

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.
