Rieteilanden-West
Rieteilanden-West is a relatively young neighbourhood, built in the early 2000s, with a mix of families and older residents. The one review we have gives it a 6.75 out of 10, with the resident saying: "Very divided. Many groups and backgrounds. Beautiful nature and plenty of sports and play facilities. Harder to reach because of tram 26." It is a neighbourhood with a strong family feel, where most households have children and the average household size is 2.6 people. The mix of backgrounds is something residents notice, as is the easy access to green space and sports. The Rieteilanden-West neighbourhood has its own character within the wider IJburg area.
Life on the street
The daily routine here is well served. For groceries, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Vomar a couple of streets away and Dekamarkt a ten-minute walk. For school runs, the Willibrordschool is on your doorstep, and the Montessori Lyceum Terra Nova for secondary education is a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Amsterdam, which means all the city's amenities are within reach, though the tram connection is the one thing residents mention as a drawback.
