Amsterdam affordability pressure index trends
Use the Amsterdam index to compare how affordability stress differs from other Dutch areas and how it changes over time. Movement matters more than any single point: rising values point to stronger pressure, while easing values suggest less strain. The index is most useful when read alongside local supply conditions and broader market context.
Figures come from the rental listings Luntero represents for the selected period. Sample sizes differ per location and month, so read short movements together with the underlying listing counts rather than as exact market wide changes.

What the data shows

- 2
Amsterdam can be compared with other Dutch areas using the same benchmark, which helps separate local stress from national trends.
- 3
The index is more informative as a direction of change than as a standalone number at one moment in time.
- 4
Broad market pressure may hide differences between submarkets, so the index should be read as an overview rather than a full local breakdown.
- 5
Shifts in supply can change affordability pressure even when headline rent levels move only modestly.
