Amsterdam neighbourhood rankings

Amsterdam's highest-income neighbourhoods (2024)

All 385 residential buurten ranked by median household income (2024). The median is the middle household, so a few very high earners can't drag it up the way an average would. Income says nothing about charm, but it predicts a lot about shops, schools and housing pressure.

Amsterdam average: €42.013

How this list is made

  • Source: median household income per buurt (BBGA indicator IHHINK_MED), most recent published year (2024).
  • Buurten with fewer than 500 residents are excluded.
  • Income statistics lag a year or two behind the present by nature; treat the ranking as structure, not news.
  • This list refreshes automatically when the municipality publishes a new year.
