Scheldebuurt

The Scheldebuurt forms the southern rim of Amsterdam-Zuid, with the Zuidas edge at its feet and 15,125 residents across six neighbourhoods. Amenities score 9.7 here and social cohesion 9.4, figures that betray the pull of offices, shops and the well-heeled south. Against that stands a meagre 2.7 for nature, the standing price of dense city fabric. Safety, at 5.3, remains on the thin side.
