The largest group of residents is between 45 and 65 years old, and a significant proportion of households have children. This translates into a neighbourhood focused on family life, not on nightlife or urban dynamics.
The homes in Kern Buggenum are predominantly ground-floor single-family houses, often detached or semi-detached, with gardens and space around them. Many houses date from the 1970s and 1980s, but there are also newer properties that refresh the picture.

Public transport is available via bus connections, although the car is the most practical choice in this area.
