Amsterdam is altogether great alongside the Netherlands, but its ever-increasing popularity among tourists is making it less and less bearable to live it. It's overly crowded and the housing market is facing serious troubles due to certain overly-liberal government policies and amount of expats coming in for newfound startups.

Still 10/10 though!

Completely agree and aforementioned expat here.

My only nitpick is the quality of career opportunities though I see a lot of new companies coming through like Message Bird, DAZN.

Any other promising opportunities that you are aware of?

Fintech is booming alongside some other niche techy startups, especially medical.

It is impossible to buy hot food in Amsterdam late at night. This to me marks a city as entirely non-functional. It’s not like I’m asking for 10 gigabit fiber to the home, just pizza. It’s bizarre.
