WHAT DOES BORGERHOUT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Borgerhout

Borgerhout

Borgerhout is a district in the city of Antwerp in the Flemish Region of Belgium. The district houses 41,614 inhabitants reflecting 90 nationalities. It is divided in two by three adjoining traffic arteries. The Ring highway surrounding Antwerp follows the line of the old city walls which is why the portion of Borgerhout 'within' the ring highway is known as Borgerhout 'intra muros' whereas the portion outside the ring highway is known as Borgerhout 'extra muros'. Population density is lower in the more recently developed 'extra muros' part of the town. The 'inter muros' part of the town is more densely populated and also contains the main shopping street. Local references to this part of the town as "Borgerokko" are believed to derive from the higher proportion of residents from North Africa, many being of Moroccan descent. In 2002, there were widespread riots in Borgerhout after a white Belgian man murdered Mohammed Achrak, an Islamic religious affairs teacher of Moroccan origin. Racial tensions have been brewing in Antwerp—where one in three voters supports the far-right anti-immigration Vlaams Blok—for years.
