[[File:Enschede-plaats-OpenTopo.jpg|left|thumb|Dutch Topographic map of Enschede (city), June 2014]]

Enschede lies in the eastern part of Overijssel and is the easternmost city of more than 140,000 inhabitants in the Netherlands. The city lies a few kilometres from [[Germany]], which borders the municipality. A few small rivers flow through or surround the city, such as the Roombeek and Glanerbeek.

Enschede contains five official city districts, which also include surrounding villages in the municipality:

*[[Stadsdeel Centrum (Enschede)|Stadsdeel Centrum]] (Binnenstad, Boddenkamp, De Bothoven, 't Getfert, Hogeland Noord, Horstlanden-Veldkamp, Laares, Lasonder-'t Zeggelt)
*[[Stadsdeel Noord (Enschede)|Stadsdeel Noord]] (for example: [[Lonneker]], Deppenbroek, Bolhaar, Mekkelholt, [[Roombeek]], Twekkelerveld)
*[[Stadsdeel Oost (Enschede)|Stadsdeel Oost]] (for example: Wooldrik, Velve-Lindenhof, De Eschmarke, 't Ribbelt, Stokhorst, Dolphia, 't Hogeland and [[Glanerbrug]])
*[[Stadsdeel Zuid (Enschede)|Stadsdeel Zuid]] (Wesselerbrink, Helmerhoek and Stroinkslanden)
*[[Stadsdeel West (Enschede)|Stadsdeel West]] (Boswinkel, Ruwenbos, Pathmos, Stadsveld, Bruggert, 't Zwering, 't Havengebied, De Marssteden, [[Boekelo]], [[Usselo]] and Twekkelo)

=== Climate ===

Like most of the Netherlands, Enschede features an oceanic climate (Cfb in the [[Köppen climate classification|Köppen classification]]), however, winters tend to be less mild than the rest of the Netherlands due to its inland location. Although the [[Enschede Airport Twente|former military airport]] is derelict and plans to revive the place were canceled in 2012, the [[Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute]] still maintains a weather station there.
