Living in Stroinkslanden-Zuid, Enschede
Stroinkslanden-Zuid is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the south side of Enschede. The streets are wide, there are mature trees along the roadsides, and many homes have a garden at both the front and back. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for architectural features, but that is not why people choose it. They choose it for space, tranquillity and a clear, orderly environment.
The housing stock mainly consists of terraced houses and semi-detached houses from the 1970s and 1980s. The homes are solidly built but energetically outdated: the average gas consumption of 990 m³ per year and electricity consumption of 2,610 kWh indicate that sustainability is still a point of attention for many homes. Anyone buying a home would be wise to take energy performance into account in negotiations or in the renovation budget.
