Living in Hogenkamp, Zwolle
Hogenkamp is located in the Diezerpoort district, northwest of Zwolle city centre. The neighbourhood has a down-to-earth, functional character typical of a post-war expansion area.

This makes the rental offering fairly straightforward: anyone considering renting an apartment in Hogenkamp will relatively quickly find something suitable in the social sector, although waiting lists are a real factor.
