Hardly any Dutch shops... mostly Muslim. On Tussenmeer 85 there is a squatter's pro-Palestine building... while everything is being done in the neighbourhood to make it nice. The building is full of Palestine flags and hate texts. We want more Dutch shops... For the rest... nice area for walking and cycling. The city is accessible from all sides and everything is well reachable. All shops are present.
Auto-translated to English by AIAdequate/average (not bad, but not fantastic either. Just normal), it's not the best, but no neighbourhood is; things can always change/improve. Plenty of educational opportunities, supermarkets like Albert Heijn and Jumbo, a bit further (15 minutes walk) there's also the centre with all sorts of other amenities such as shops, supermarkets, ice cream shops, restaurants, etc. Many playgrounds, so really family-friendly. However, I must admit that there is little parking space, possibly due to these amenities. Hygiene could also be better; there is often some rubbish on the ground that doesn't belong there, like cans etc. Housing: there are many homes and houses in the neighbourhood, also with private and shared garages, so really great.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are so often bombs and explosions. And a lot of rubbish thrown on the ground. Constant arguments. Many young people with fitbikes. Almost got run over.
Auto-translated to English by AIVaried. I can't describe it with one word because in some areas it differs greatly from another. One aspect is simply a bit less good, for example there is very little parking space. Other areas are really great, everything is nearby, much is within walking distance, think schools, supermarkets, city centre, restaurants etc. That there is little greenery is not surprising when you live in a neighbourhood. Hygiene could also be better in my opinion, there are many things always on the street while there is a bin just 1 metre away.

About Baden Powellweg 263A-11, Amsterdam
The asking price of €250,000 is 46% below the neighbourhood average of €461,889, but the studio is also much smaller than average (32 m² vs 87 m²). Compared to other studios in Amsterdam, the price per square metre (€7,813) is above the neighbourhood average of €5,658, so it's not a bargain on that basis. The price is keen relative to the neighbourhood average, but the small size and missing energy label are factors to consider.
This means you cannot estimate energy costs from the advertisement. In the neighbourhood, 47.1% of homes have label A and 35.3% have label A+, so many homes are efficient, but this specific studio's label is unknown.
The nearest train station is 4 km away. That's about a ten-minute cycle or a short bus ride.
Residents describe the area as mixed. One says it's "Adequate/average", with plenty of amenities and playgrounds, but notes litter and limited parking. Another mentions "so often bombs and explosions" and arguments. A third review highlights a pro-Palestine squat and a lack of Dutch shops. Overall, the neighbourhood scores 6.58 out of 10 from four reviews.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it's not possible to say whether there is any private outdoor space. The neighbourhood has a park or public garden 0.2 km away.
The property is described as a studio, which typically means one main room plus a separate kitchen and bathroom. The floor area is 32 m², so it is a compact home.
The agent has not published the energy label in the listing. This is a legal requirement for sales, so it may be available upon request. The neighbourhood has a high proportion of efficient homes, but this studio's label is not stated.
