| - Overbanken (English pronunciation: [ˈoʊ̯vɻ̩ːˌbeɪ̯ŋkn̩] (standard); [ˈɔːvəˌbæŋkn̩] (Beaver River); Oceana pronunciation: [ˈovɛʁˌbaŋkɛn]; archaic: Bankoni; [ˈbaŋkɛn], officially: Overbanken-Neighborhood) is a region and district north of the Hurbanova Stream. It contains one of Hurbanova's neighborhoods, which is also called Overbanken. Although it is relatively small compared to other rural districts, it has a population of 207 people (ODC, 2012). Overbanken houses several anti-flooding facilities, hydroelectric facilities, the Overbanken Regional Airport, and several campings. In the past, the region was prepared for the construction of a new neighborhood of Hurbanova, or even a separate hamlet. The straight, asphalted roads in the largely deforested plains still reminded of this period. Eventually, all plans for the construction of new homes had been dropped, before the desperate housing shortage in Oceana led to new plans. Although Bill An already presented plans for a new settlement and illegally began clearing the area in 2011, his lay-out was never accepted. The current neighborhood was designed by Oos Wes Ilava and Bart Koenen. The original route of the Emerald Railway crosses the Overbanken area and has nowadays been converted into a bicyclist and hiking route. Administratively, there is an area called "Overbanken-Neighborhood" (Oceana: Dedin o'Bankoni), which is part of the Hurbanova built-up area, and a district called "Overbanken-Forest" (Oceana: Overbanken-Stareless). However, traffic signs only exist in the form "Overbanken" (Oceana: Bankoni). The Oceana Demographic Center treats them separately.
