Overtoomse Veld-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 44 m² studio in a 2023 building is fresh off the construction site. It's on Postjesweg, in the Overtoomse Veld-Zuid neighbourhood. The rent of €1,228 is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €1,683, which is keen for a new-build with an A+ energy label. For context, studios in Amsterdam vary widely in price.
One resident describes the area as 'Pretty decent', noting that while the reputation isn't great, there's diversity and greenery. They say: '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.' They also mention the streets can be dirty. The neighbourhood Overtoomse Veld-Zuid has a high population density, with many young adults and single-person households.
For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner and Lidl is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including OBS de Toekomst and the 7e Montessorischool. The municipality Amsterdam offers plenty of amenities, though for clothes shopping you'd head to the city centre.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via vb&t Verhuurmakelaars.

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.
