Emmerhout, Emmen
NeighbourhoodThis listing is for a room on Laan van het Kwekebos in Emmen, in the Emmerhout neighbourhood. The listing does not state a house number, floor area, year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the room itself. At €725 per month, the rent is 42% below the neighbourhood average of €1,248, but without knowing the size, it's hard to say if that's a bargain. For context, the average room in Emmen goes for €495, so this is above that. See other rooms in Emmen for comparison.
Emmerhout is a green neighbourhood with a mix of families and older residents. Based on three reviews, it scores an 8.06 out of 10. One resident calls it "Cosy and quiet" and says "Nice cosy neighbourhood, everyone welcome and not unfriendly." Another notes: "Lots of green with everything within walking distance", they mention shops, forest walks, and good bus connections to the centre. However, the same reviewer also describes serious nuisance from a neighbour placed by the housing association, saying "the housing association doesn't consider what kind of people they place." The neighbourhood has around 7,085 residents, with many single-person households and a fair share of families. Most homes are owner-occupied (46%) and single-family (64%). For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Emmerhout.
For groceries, you have a Jumbo just around the corner and a Lidl a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are also on your doorstep: RK/PC Jenaplanschool Kristalla and De Kubus, both about 315 m away. A GP and a restaurant are within a five-minute walk. The train station is 3.3 km away, a short bike ride. The neighbourhood is surrounded by forest, so if you enjoy walking or have a dog, you can easily head into the woods.

Nice cosy neighbourhood, everyone welcome and not unfriendly
Auto-translated to English by AIa very good neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is generally quiet, with a drug user here and there, but you get that everywhere. There is plenty of green, shops within walking distance, and the city centre is easily reachable by bus or bike. They've also thought about the children, which is always nice, and we are surrounded by forest, so if you enjoy a walk or have dogs, you can easily go into the woods – what more could you want? Downside: the housing association doesn't consider what kind of people they place. For example, I have a neighbour next to me who causes enormous nuisance, a heavy hard drug addict, spent 13 years in prison, and a TBS patient or ex-TBS patient. The man is 53, has never lived on his own, and is just thrown in without supervision, which is obviously asking for trouble. I've lived next to him for 19 months now, don't get a wink of sleep at night because he's active then, and the housing association says they don't know what to do with him, and the police in Emmen don't even come because, in our opinion, they're simply afraid of him. This is the only downside, but it's probably a national issue, as you see on TV that organisations, housing associations, and the police work at cross purposes, and as a result, help often comes too late. Other than that, I really enjoy living here.
