Economic development in the district

Flying high

A lively and varied district stretches from Engelbosteler Damm via Schulenburger Landstraße to Vinnhorst, offering the best conditions for both its approximately 33,000 residents and the companies based here.

The district is characterized above all by active student life. An abundance of small restaurants, copy stores and stationery stores ensure a stable, sustainably used infrastructure.

Extensive redevelopment programs, which have been providing sustained momentum in the individual districts since the 1980s, are also having an impact in the almost 11 km² district.
