Living in Noordenbergsingel, Deventer
Noordenbergsingel is one of the quieter, more residential parts of Deventer city centre. The neighbourhood takes its name from the singel that runs along the historic city wall, giving it a very distinctive character: wide avenues, old trees and a green buffer between the bustle of the city centre and the quieter residential streets behind it. The greenery scores highly with residents, with a 9 out of 10 for the surroundings. The housing stock consists mainly of ground-floor homes and spacious early twentieth-century apartments, with the occasional renovated property. The average floor area of a rented home is 114 m², indicating that these are not small city apartments.
