Amsterdam is one of the nicest cities I've been to, and would love to go back there, even to live for a year or two.
I'd do a quick financial scenario analysis between renting and buying and keep an eye on what's available for sale on the market.
I think I'm in a little bit of a middle class bubble here compared to the rest of the Netherlands, despite the crime being highest here compared to the rest of the country I haven't had much trouble, but I am lucky enough to live in the centre right now.
