University students sometimes study in nearby Namur, but many rural Belgians will prefer to study in Brussels and other parts of the country while renting a kot (a small flat).

Each year in the village, participants perform Saint Lawrence March (la Marche de Saint-Laurent), a folkloric tradition in which participants bless their weapon by soaking the butt of their weapon, or the pole of the flag they will carry in the fountain of Saint Lawrence, a tradition since 1963. Respectively, the village of Saint-Pierre (Saint Peter) performs the march of Saint Laurent.
