People living in the south of the Netherlands experience most problems with drugs and dealers, according to new research by national statistics office CBS. The CBS says over one in eight people living in the Noord-Brabant town of Roosendaal experience problems, making it the worst place in the country in terms of drugs nuisance. Noord-Brabant and Limburg have proportionally more problems with drugs because they are popular with drugs tourists from Belgium and Germany. In 2009, Roosendaal and Bergen op Zoom closed all their cannabis cafes in an effort to stop drugs tourism but that has led to a surge in street dealing, critics say.
