Amsterdam is an unincorporated community in Merced County, California.[1] It is located 6.5 miles (10 km) north-northeast of Atwater,[2] at an elevation of 220 feet (67 m).[1]

Amsterdam was settled by Dutch immigrants, and had a station on the Southern Pacific branch line to Oakdale, abandoned in 1942.[3] In 1925, Amsterdam was said to have a population of 32.[4] The community was featured in the 2012 Belgian documentary Amsterdam Stories USA on places in the United States named Amsterdam.[5]

A post office operated at Amsterdam from 1893 to 1895, from 1900 to 1910, with a closure during part of 1906, and from 1912 to 1925.[2]
