Average house price in the Netherlands by postcode (CBS data)

Value is EUR (x1000)

Same, coloured by quintile.

The CBS has data on the average house price and the migration composition of Dutch postcodes. This is how it looks: higher shares of people with a "non-western" (sic) migration backround correlate with lower house prices, % "western" (expats?) correlate with higher house prices.

N=ca. 4000 Dutch postcodes.

Here you can compare the large cities of Amsterdam, the Hague, Rotterdam and Utrecht in terms of %"non-western" immigrants (left) and house prices (right) by postcode.

More appropriate description would be average house value, since this is based on official tax value (WOZ)

And here the 2 most expensive postcodes in the Netherlands.

What is it with joggers running on the cycle path? Is the pavement not good enough for their expensive shoes?

I thought cyclists and pedestrians could develop a collective class consciousness against car drivers until I realised how much I hate weekend Lycra wankers on racing bikes speeding through and phosphorescent joggers taking over the cycle path.

We cargo bike fathers have nothing in common with these people.

From the Dutch naturalization test:
"Ms Van Dam is rude to Sarah. What should Sarah do?"
- Lodge a complaint
- Get angry and not give her coffee
- Stay calm and tell her she doesn't think it's nice.

It's going to be difficult for Ms Van Dam to pass the naturalization test, being rude like that.

More seriously, how can any of these behaviours be wrong? There's probably a fair percentage of Dutch people who would act in each of these ways.

Olà. Fiz algumas analises dos factores influenciando a % para o Chega/André Ventura nas ultimas eleiçoes presidenciais, usando regressoes OLS bastante simples. Eis uns resultados (thread) (1/n)

1. A percentagem de desempregados nao tem impacto. Controlando por outros fatores, os concelhos com mais desemprego nao têm uma percentagem maior de votos para André Ventura. O ganho medio mensal ou a sua variaçao nos ultimos 10 anos tambem nao tem impacto.
