The Essesteijn / Dreven neighbourhood
The Essesteijn / Dreven neighbourhood is a mixed area with a strong urban feel, given the high address density.

The housing stock is split fairly evenly between single-family homes and flats, and most homes are owner-occupied. It is a busy, well-populated part of town rather than a quiet leafy suburb.
