Comment Comment by em500 Maybe the more interesting stats for parents:Average distance to primary/elementary school: 500m (with on average 3.6 schools within a 1km radius, 27.5 within a 3km radius)Average distance to secondary/middle-high school: 900m (with on average 10.8 schools within a 3km radius)That's why starting from age 8 or so most kids cycle or walk to school themselves (there are no school busses in the Netherlands AFAIK). parent em500 2 years ago
