Overtoomse Veld-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 42 m² studio in a 2023 building is fresh off the construction site. It's a rental home on Postjesweg, in the Overtoomse Veld-Zuid neighbourhood. The energy label A+ means it's very efficient, so heating costs will be low. At €1,228 per month, the rent is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €1,683, a keen price for a new-build studio. For comparison, studios in Amsterdam average around €1,683.
One resident describes the area as "Pretty decent" and says: "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." The neighbourhood has a very high density of 5,906 addresses per km², making it strongly urban. Many residents are young adults between 25 and 45, and there are plenty of single-person households. The neighbourhood Overtoomse Veld-Zuid is a lively, diverse part of Amsterdam.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Lidl is a couple of streets away. There are also several schools within walking distance: OBS de Toekomst is a couple of streets away, and the 7e Montessorischool is a five-minute walk. For secondary education, DENISE is also a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the amenities you'd expect from a major city, with the city centre a short cycle away.

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.
