Living in Emmeloord-Emmelhage-Boswonen, Noordoostpolder
Emmelhage and Boswonen are the newer, more spacious expansion neighbourhoods on the south side of Emmeloord, developed from the 1990s and early 2000s. When you drive through for the first time, you immediately notice how much green there is: wide avenues, shrubbery, water features and spacious plots give the neighbourhood a character you won't find in the older parts of Emmeloord. The name says it all: Boswonen literally means living in and near the greenery.
The homes are predominantly spacious semi-detached and detached houses, built in a period when plots were still generous. Streets like Emmelhage itself are laid out with plenty of public space and play areas, which explains why families with children form the largest household group. With 600 children under fifteen and 460 family households, this is a neighbourhood where bikes are in the garden and footballs are kicked in the street. The labour participation rate of 79% and an average income of €39,900, clearly above the municipal average of €33,400, reflect an active middle class that consciously chose this location.
