Living in Bedum Noord - Oost, Het Hogeland

Bedum Noord - Oost is the quieter, greener part of the village of Bedum, which is part of the municipality of Het Hogeland. The neighbourhood has a distinctly village character: wide streets, spacious plots and relatively many detached and semi-detached homes. The housing stock largely consists of post-war construction, supplemented by expansions from the 1980s and 1990s. This is reflected in the higher WOZ values compared to the rest of Bedum: the homes are on average larger and have more outdoor space than in the more compact western or southern neighbourhoods.

The neighbourhood mainly attracts families and people in the 45 to 65 age group, which determines the atmosphere: it is quiet, the streets are clear and there is little nuisance. Young people and students are less represented, which is also logical given the limited supply of smaller or cheaper rental homes.
