Living in Angelslo: let's be honest
Angelslo scores a 5.1 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl, based on resident reviews. That is not a high score, and if you read the reviews, you understand why. Resident Vince Tigelaar gives the neighbourhood a 6.0 and writes: "It is a fine neighbourhood to live in Emmen. The streets and nature look tidy. Safety could be better. There is a lot of crime and young people engaging in vandalism." This picture is reflected in the sub-scores: safety gets only a 3.3 out of 10, while amenities (6.3) and accessibility (6.0) score better. The neighbourhood is located near the Angelslo shopping centre on Hondsrugweg, where you will find supermarkets and daily essentials. Via the N34 and N391, you are quickly on the provincial roads towards Zwolle or Groningen.
Opinions on the social atmosphere are divided. Leander Voots (3.1/10) is outright critical: "A lot of cronyism. If you fall outside that, you are seen as an outcast." At the same time, he notes that the municipality is working on improvements in the neighbourhood. The score for sense of community (3.7) confirms that the social fabric here is not automatically close-knit. This makes Angelslo different from, for example, the nearby Nieuw-Dordrecht, which has a more village-like character. Want to see all resident reviews and detailed neighbourhood scores?

The greenery in the neighbourhood scores a 5.7: there are parks and grass fields, but it is not a distinctly green neighbourhood. The municipality of Emmen has been investing in the restructuring of parts of Angelslo in recent years, which should improve liveability in the long term.

Look, it could be a lot better, but I still have to say it's a great neighbourhood. Every city has its less pleasant spots where you don't want to walk alone. In terms of schools, it's very well organised for every level and age – it's just good here! Many schools to choose from. Also for further education, it's very good here! Furthermore, the shops are excellent!
Auto-translated to English by AILots of "I know who I know", cronyism, if you fall outside that you're seen as an "outcast". Terrible shortcoming within the municipality! Apart from that, the accommodation etc. is quite good, significant progress within the municipality, they are working on improving the municipality. The neighbourhood itself could still use a lot of improvement.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a great neighbourhood to live in Emmen. I gave hygiene a passing grade because the streets and nature look tidy. Safety could be a bit better. In my opinion, there is a lot of crime and young people engaging in vandalism. But otherwise, I'll end on a positive note to indicate that there are many schools for the children, and that is of course very nice!
