Living in Buitengebied Noord-Appingedam: space, tranquillity and Groningen landscape
Those who live in Buitengebied Noord-Appingedam consciously choose the countryside. This is not a neighbourhood with a village centre or shopping street, but an open landscape of wide fields, scattered farmhouses and small hamlets. The Ekenstein neighbourhood lies in the middle, with the eponymous estate as a striking green anchor point. Garreweer and Jukwerd also belong to this rural area and each has its own character as small terp villages. For daily groceries, you drive to Appingedam itself, just a few minutes away, where supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Aldi are available. Primary schools can be found in the centre of Appingedam, as well as GP practices and sports clubs.
On the neighbourhood page of Buitengebied Noord-Appingedam you can find resident reviews and neighbourhood data. Residents particularly appreciate the peace and space: little traffic, no nuisance from neighbours within a stone's throw, and views you never get in a city. A recurring point in the reviews is the distance to amenities. If you don't have a car, you notice that quickly: public transport is limited. Appingedam has a bus connection to Groningen, but from the rural area you are dependent on your own transport. The city of Groningen is reachable via the N360 in about 25 minutes. Delfzijl is even closer, about a ten-minute drive. There is no train station in the immediate vicinity; the nearest station is Groningen Hoofdstation.
The labour participation rate in the neighbourhood is 70% and the average income is €33,700, slightly higher than the municipal average. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years, which fits the picture of a neighbourhood that attracts people who are further along in their housing career and consciously choose space outside the built-up area. For a comparison with more urban alternatives in the municipality, you can also look at Delfzijl-Centrum, Farmsum or Fivelzigt.
