I think the Elandsgracht neighbourhood is great, actually the Jordaan too. Lots of familiar faces so everyone is somewhat known to each other. The Jordaan also has a large share of history with names like André Hazes, Willem Holleeder and tante Leen. In short, a nice neighbourhood where a lot happened back in the day and very nice neighbours!
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is really a piece of Amsterdam. Old canals, a bit messy, but cosy. You have those little shops and pubs there, a real mix of everything. By tram you're in the city centre in no time, so that's great. Tourists? Yes, you see them, but it doesn't really bother me. I feel quite safe there, despite the crowds.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's cosy here with many shops and eateries in the neighbourhood. In my opinion, my street is visited too much by loitering youths; my neighbours seem to find that cosy too. Little to no trouble with crime. Good public transport connections.

About Elandsstraat 171-3, Amsterdam
Yes, it's keen. The average rent in the Elandsgrachtbuurt is €4,054, and the median is €3,150. At €2,250, this studio is 44% below the neighbourhood average. However, it's also smaller than average (38 m² vs 103 m²), so the price per m² is about €59, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €42.90 per m². Overall, it's a good deal for a central Amsterdam studio.
Residents feel safe. One review mentions 'little to no trouble with crime', and another says 'I feel quite safe there, despite the crowds.' The total number of crimes reported in the neighbourhood is 421, but given the dense urban setting, this is not unusual. The area is busy with tourists and locals, but residents don't report it as a problem.
The neighbourhood has good public transport connections. A resident notes: 'By tram you're in the city centre in no time.' The nearest train station is 2.6 km away, so for longer journeys you'd take a tram or bus. Buses and trams run frequently through the Jordaan, connecting you to the rest of Amsterdam.
Yes, it has an A++ energy label, which is excellent. This means very low energy costs for heating and electricity. The building was built in 1930 but has been upgraded to modern standards. You can expect a warm, efficient home without high bills.
