Good news if you’re one half of an ordinary Amsterdam couple: your household probably got a fair bit richer last year.
Almost 12% up in a year
The typical Amsterdam couple had €93,000 in wealth in 2025, new figures from Statistics Netherlands (CBS) show.
A year earlier that was €83,100, so that’s a jump of almost 12%.
“Typical” here means the couple right in the middle: half of the city’s 180,200 couples have more, half have less.
The average tells another story
The average wealth of an Amsterdam couple is far higher, at €621,800, and it grew just 2.1%.
That gap exists because a small group of very wealthy households pulls the average way up.
Still, ordinary couples caught up a little: the average used to be more than seven times the typical amount, and now it’s closer to six and a half.
€112 billion between them
Add it all up and Amsterdam’s couples now own €112.1 billion together, up from €109.2 billion a year earlier.
