The Weesperbuurt is a dense, urban area with a very high address density of 8,115 per km². It is home to 3,160 people, mostly in single-person households (1,400 out of 1,675 households). The population is relatively young, with the largest group aged 25 to 45. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture here is based purely on statistics.

Boekmanschool is on your doorstep, OBS Aldoende is a five-minute walk, and ASVO is just a bit further. Secondary schools are a ten-minute walk away, with Metis Montessori Lyceum and Kiem Montessori both within reach. The municipality Amsterdam page has more on the wider area.

About Lepelkruisstraat 11-2, Amsterdam
At €350,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in the Weesperbuurt, and it is 69% below the average asking price of €1,118,586. However, the studio is also 61% smaller than the average home in the neighbourhood (35 m² vs 90 m²). Given the size and the fact that it is a studio, the price is in line with what you would expect for a compact unit in this central Amsterdam location.
The energy label is C. That is a decent rating for a home built in 1952. In the Weesperbuurt, 39% of homes have label C, so this is typical for the area. A C label means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs. It is not as efficient as a modern A-rated home, but it is far from the worst.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away. That is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. The station is not named in the listing, but given the distance, it is likely one of the central Amsterdam stations.
The Weesperbuurt recorded 250 total crimes in the latest data. That is a number you should consider in context: this is a very dense, central urban area with a high population and many visitors. The crime rate is something to be aware of, but it is typical for a city-centre neighbourhood.
Homes that sold in the Weesperbuurt took an average of 32 days to sell. That is a fairly standard timeframe for Amsterdam. It suggests a balanced market where buyers take time to decide, but homes do not linger for months.
The average price per square metre for homes currently for sale in the Weesperbuurt is €11,390. For this studio of 35 m², that would imply a value of around €398,650, so the asking price of €350,000 is below that average. However, studios often sell for less per m² than larger apartments.
