Heerde from within: a quiet village with an older population and short lines
Heerde is not a neighbourhood in the urban sense of the word, but a village with its own character. The population is clearly older: the largest age group consists of 45- to 65-year-olds, and the 65-plus group is also substantial. There are fewer young people and young families. Marcel Hikmat, who has lived there his entire life, describes it aptly: "There are many elderly people and not many young people. There aren't many things available here, but it's enough." That sums up the atmosphere well: Heerde is not a bustling centre, but a place where people live comfortably without having everything on their doorstep.
