Life in Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs
The Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs neighbourhood is a dense, urban pocket right by the station and the Jaarbeurs complex. It's a young area, with 66% of residents aged between 25 and 45, and most households are single people. One resident describes it as: "Busy but because the apartment is high up you hardly notice it!"

The same resident notes they don't always feel comfortable walking alone late at night, and would like more green space, though there is a nice green courtyard at the complex. That's based on one review, so it's a single perspective rather than a consensus.
