The area near town is agricultural, so fields and small creeks are plentiful. The town is bordered by the Camp Creek on the west and Valley Ditch to the north.

History

Originally called Walrath for farmer A. J. Walrath, Amsterdam was established in 1911 by the Northern Pacific Railway on a branch line between Manhattan and Anceney. The railroad changed the name to Amsterdam because of the large number of Dutch settlers. The settlers moved to the area in the 1890s to grow malting barley to supply the Manhattan Malting Company.
