Explanation of symbols

Dataset is not available.

This table contains information about the average distances for residents of the Netherlands from their home address to the nearest facilities (e.g. school, GP or library). The table also includes information about the number of facilities located within a certain distance from the residential address. These data are calculated as an average over all persons in the area.

The data is available at different regional levels. The lowest level is the municipality.

Description topics

Leisure and culture
Performing arts (excl. festivals)
Art forms performed by professional actors and actresses for a live audience. The professional performing arts take place at locations such as theatres and concert halls, but also in neighbourhood centres and on music venues . Locations with arts as a collateral activity be included in the figures. Festivals aren’t included in this variable.

As of the reporting year 2014, all performing arts venues within an organization are included (provided they meet the above criteria). In the years before 2014, only one performing arts location per organization was included in the population. The populations before 2014 therefore have slightly fewer locations.


Distance to pop music venue
The average distance of all inhabitants in an area to the nearest pop music venue, calculated by road.
