Oriental massage parlors in Arnhem The Netherlands

Last week a message in ‘De Gelderlander’ with the headline: “Arnhem is the massage capital of Gelderland.
The newspaper talks about a doubling of the number of Asian massage parlors in Arnhem compared to three years ago.
Newspaper ‘De Gelderlander’ has an inventory of the number of massage parlors in Arnhem, but at the same time make an estimate of 20 to 30 massage parlors.
Nor is it clear whether we are dealing with the region or the city of Arnhem itself.

So may turn out that this newspaper has not done a very careful investigation

However, it could be worse in Arnhem, Chinese and Thai massages also gaining in popularity here.
In the city of Arnhem are situated grand total of 15 Oriental massage parlors, see map.
The “density” of Chinese and Thai massage parlors is no more or less than in the rest of the Netherlands with the exception of the big cities.
In Arnhem 1 massage parlor at about 10.000 inhabitants
In Haarlem, one massage parlor at about 10,000 inhabitants
In Utrecht one massage parlor at 10,000
In Amsterdam, one massage parlor at about 6500 inhabitants
In The Hague one massage parlor at about 7700 inhabitants

So the article in ‘De Gelderlander’ is far-fetched, careless and smacks it to rabble-rousing.
