=== Proximity of border with Germany ===
The city lies a few kilometers from the border with Germany, and to some extent the westernmost villages in the municipality of [[Kranenburg, North Rhine-Westphalia|Kranenburg]], Germany, function as [[commuter town|dormitories]] for people who work in the Dutch city of Nijmegen in part due to the immigration of Dutch people from the region who were attracted by the lower house pricing just across the border.

The German city of [[Duisburg]] (in the [[Ruhr]] region) is about {{convert|78|km|1|abbr=on}} away, while the German town of [[Kleve]] (in the [[Lower Rhine region]]) is about {{convert|20|km|1|abbr=on}} away.
