You're allowed to live in this country, but often not allowed to vote.

Depends on your status. English people living legally in Germany can vote
in European elections (at the same place where the Germans vote), but not
in national elections. For that, you'll need a Germany citizienship -
which
did become much easier to obtain some years ago, for most European
nationalities you can legally keep your old passport and nationality and
get a German one, too.

In The Netherlands aliens can also vote in local council elections.

In all EU countries other EU citizens residing there can vote in local
elections - it's EU law
