Ter Borch scores a perfect 10 for social cohesion, housing and the overall grade, but amenities lag noticeably at 4.4 — the nearest supermarket is 3.2 kilometres away. Ninety-nine percent of homes are detached or semi-detached, all of it built after 2000, and average home values of €870,000 run to more than double the national midpoint.
