The area has 2,295 residents, mostly singles (830 one-person households) and few families with children (195). Over 72% of homes were built before 1945, so period features are common. One resident says: "You step out the door and you're in the middle of everything, markets, bars, the Oude Kerk." Another notes: "It's lively, but the canals keep it charming." This is the neighbourhood Centrum-Oost.
For groceries, Ekoplaza is just around the corner, with Albert Heijn and PLUS a couple of streets away. Montessorischool Jan Vermeer is on your doorstep, and Max Havelaar Kindcentrum is a five-minute walk. The municipality Delft offers a compact city centre where most daily needs are within walking distance.
