Living in Flevowijk, Kampen
Flevowijk is a post-war urban district on the west side of Kampen, recognisable by its mix of low-rise terraced houses and several apartment blocks. The neighbourhood was largely built in the 1970s and 1980s as a working-class area, with a functional and sober character. This is reflected in the streets: wide roads, plenty of greenery in the parks, and a district structure clearly designed with families and accessibility in mind. Today, Flevowijk is a mixed neighbourhood, both in terms of buildings and residents. Besides young families, there are also many elderly people, and single-person households, with 835, form the largest category. The age group 25 to 45 is the most strongly represented.
The shopping centre in the neighbourhood is an important anchor point. Resident Aletta Matheus describes it aptly: "We have a good shopping centre." That's right: for daily groceries, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood. Primary schools are nearby, which is also reflected in resident scores: education scores the highest of all categories at 8.5. For secondary education, pupils rely on facilities elsewhere in Kampen, but the distances are limited.
Accessibility is a strong point of Flevowijk. The neighbourhood scores an 8.0 on accessibility. Kampen has its own train station with connections to Zwolle, from where you can quickly travel to the rest of the country. By bike, you can reach the centre of Kampen in a quarter of an hour. By car, the neighbourhood connects to the N50 towards Zwolle and the A28. Bus services run regularly through the district.
Socially, Flevowijk is a neighbourhood with two faces. Aletta Matheus writes: "I myself live in a complex, where we are very social and caring towards each other." At the same time, she indicates that the neighbourhood "sometimes has its challenges." That honesty fits a district where owner-occupied and rental properties are mixed, and where residents from diverse backgrounds live side by side. The Welfare Foundation is active in the neighbourhood to strengthen social cohesion. Jennie Swets simply describes Flevowijk as "a nice and cosy neighbourhood," and the overall resident score of 7.8 out of 10 confirms that most residents enjoy living there. Safety, accessibility, community and appearance all score 8.0. Greenery scores the lowest at 7.0, although there are parks and green strips present.
Compared to neighbourhoods like Binnenstad Kampen or Hanzewijk/Greente, Flevowijk is less historic and less characteristic, but also more accessible in terms of price and lifestyle. Compared to Kampen-Zuid, Flevowijk has a slightly rougher, more urban character.

Who is a home for sale in Flevowijk interesting for?
Flevowijk attracts buyers looking for an affordable entry into Kampen without immediately stepping into the most expensive segments. Starters can find homes from €250,000, although supply is limited and there are few transactions per year. Families benefit from the good primary schools and the quiet living environment. Elderly people who already rent in the neighbourhood and want to buy, or who consciously choose a ground-floor home or apartment, also fit this profile. Disadvantage: supply is scarce and prices, despite the lower WOZ value, are already well above that value. Those who are more flexible in terms of location can also look at Brunnepe or the rental homes in Flevowijk as a temporary alternative.

A nice and cosy neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AII live in a complex myself, where we are very social and caring towards each other. The neighbourhood is a mix of owner-occupied and rental properties. Additionally, a mix of low-rise and high-rise buildings. A neighbourhood where many elderly people also live. It's pleasant to live here and we have a good shopping centre. Together with St. Welzijn, we also try to get to know the neighbours on other streets. There are also many other cultures living here. In my opinion, we can make it a beautiful, vibrant district, but that will take some time. I just miss a real meeting space in our neighbourhood; perhaps the church (which is there) could play a role in that. Or a brown café would also be nice. Getting to know each other and learning from one another. A good neighbour is worth gold! A meeting space offers many opportunities to get in touch with each other, exchange ideas, and enjoy various meals together. Every neighbourhood should have such a space.
