Auto-translated to English by AII live here in Enschede, it's a very international environment. People are very welcoming, friendly and respectful. I am a black woman married to an Arab man and in Amsterdam, Zaandam, Koog aan de Zaan, and Beverwijk when I lived there we experienced a lot of racism and were afraid for our children when they got older. Enschede honestly gives a different picture of the Netherlands, it's very quiet and friendly, and also a plus point it's very affordable to live here.
