@majorrage I'd have thought the overwhelming majority are fluent. When I lived there 40 years ago anyone under 30 was fluent. Those people are retired now. Unless they haven't kept it up their English will be good, although they may be reluctant to use it.
It was actually an impediment to me learning Dutch as the locals would speak English rather than wait for my laboured Nederlands
Yep. I know plenty of Dutch people who (still) speak reasonably good English - older and younger - and they all sound the same. I'd recognise the accent anywhere. That includes people in their 50s, 60s. Maybe not older.
Travel; listening to songs in English; movies; many foreign visitors. It all helps.
