Living in Enter-Oost, Wierden
Enter-Oost is the greener, somewhat quieter part of the village of Enter. The neighbourhood has a predominantly residential character with spacious plots, many detached houses and semi-detached homes, mostly dating from the 1980s and 1990s. Streets like the Bornsestraat and the area towards the countryside give the neighbourhood a village-rural feel, without being far from amenities. It is not an anonymous expansion district, but a neighbourhood where people know each other and stay for a long time. This is also reflected in the age structure: the largest group of residents is between 45 and 65 years old, followed by those aged 65 and over. Young families are represented, but the neighbourhood attracts relatively more movers and seniors than first-time buyers.
