Living in Presikhaaf III, Arnhem
Presikhaaf III is a post-war expansion district on the eastern side of Arnhem, built in the 1960s and 1970s. The neighbourhood mainly consists of porch flats and terraced houses, with a recognisable stamp structure typical of many similar districts from that period. The streetscape is green: wide parks, trees along the roads, and a quiet layout with little through traffic. This gives the neighbourhood a certain breathing space that you won't find in the centre of Arnhem.
The population is diverse. With over 4,400 residents and a large group of 25- to 45-year-olds, it is neither a grey neighbourhood nor a student district. Single-person households form the largest group (1,135 households), which fits the type of housing common here: smaller apartments and compact rental homes. The average income is €24,400, lower than the Arnhem average of €35,600. The labour participation rate of 53% and the proportion of highly educated residents at 14% indicate that this is a mixed neighbourhood in socio-economic terms.
