Levendaal-West is part of the inner city, with a very high address density of 6,208 per km². It's a neighbourhood of mostly one-person households (580 out of 795 households) and few families with children (75). The population is young, with the largest group aged 25,45 (420 residents). Almost all homes were built before 1945. There are no resident reviews available for this area, so the picture comes from the statistics alone.
