Kerkrade-Noord

Kerkrade-Noord, taking in neighbourhoods like Chevremont and Eygelshoven, still carries the marks of Limburg's mining past. Amenities manage a 7.7, but housing (3.3), safety (4.9) and social life (3.9) fall well short. Six neighbourhoods hold nearly 13,000 residents. The 3.6 overall ranks among the lower marks in the region and lays bare the housing challenge in particular.
