How this list is made
- Source: average WOZ value per buurt (BBGA indicator WWOZ_GEM), most recent published year (2025).
- Buurten with fewer than 500 residents are excluded.
- WOZ values typically sit below market prices, especially in fast-rising areas, and reflect the housing mix: a buurt of large canal houses outranks one of small flats regardless of price per square metre.
- This list refreshes automatically when the municipality publishes a new year.
Frequently asked questions
What is the most expensive neighbourhood in Amsterdam?
By average WOZ value, Diepenbrockbuurt (Apollobuurt) leads in 2025 at €2.534.543 per home on average.
Is the WOZ value the same as the market price?
No. It is the municipality's bulk valuation on a reference date a year back, and usually sits below what homes actually sell for. It is best used to compare areas and track trends, not to price a specific home.
