Höxter
7.3
High score (8-10)
Kloster Corvey (UNESCO World Heritage Site) and the Weser Uplands landscape attract cultural tourism, and the district's quiet character is legitimate if what you want is rural Germany without the post-industrial bleakness of the Ruhr.
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Höxter is one of NRW's smallest and most rural districts, running along the Weser at the Lower Saxony border. Kloster Corvey is a real UNESCO site. The demographic is old and thinning — the district has been losing residents steadily for decades.
Lower score (below 6)
Höxter is remote rural NRW with an aging population, no university, no significant industry, and among the lowest population density in the state. It's beautiful in the way that depopulating German countryside is beautiful. For an outsider seeking any kind of social life, this district offers almost nothing — the social fabric is entirely composed of people who grew up here and know each other's grandparents.
