%X The past decade, the devotion to neighbourhoods is decreasing among Dutch residents and the people desiring to move is increasing, which affects the well-being of residents. This thesis examines how the desire to leave a neighbourhood is affected by neighbourhood cohesion using survey data from the Netherlands. Multiple reasons to leave a neighbourhood are identified and a variable for neighbourhood cohesion is created. Methods which include logistic regression models are used. It is found there is a significant relation between neighbourhood cohesion and the desire to leave a neighbourhood. If neighbourhood cohesion increases, the desire to leave the neighbourhood will decrease. Further, the results of this study show that neighbourhood cohesion has a significant effect on the desire to leave a neighbourhood, only neighbourhood appearance and age of the respondent have a larger effect on desiring to leave a neighbourhood.
